How to use Markup

Creating an account

For the username, we recommend your first name and last initial (or full name). It's what other students see on your posts, so something recognizable helps admins reach you and lets classmates find what you've shared.

Once you're in, you can browse and open study resources, post your own, chat on the forum, contact admins, and save your favorite posts.

Making a post

When you create a post, you'll be asked to fill in a few fields:

Title. A short, clear description of what you're sharing.
Description. A little more detail — still brief.
Class & Teacher. Pick from the dropdowns. Check first whether the teacher or class is already listed — if it is, use it.
Link. Your resource — a study guide, Quizlet, Knowt deck, Google Doc, Claude app, YouTube video, anything study-related.

Only add a new class or teacher if they're not already listed. Duplicates make the directory messy and harder for everyone to use.

Finding resources

My classes. Pick each class you're taking and the teacher who runs your section (the same class can vary a lot by teacher). The homepage then gets a “My classes” tab showing only resources that match your exact class + teacher combos. Set it up anytime from the homepage.
Search. The search bar finds posts, descriptions, teachers, classes, and classmates — close matches work, you don't need exact spelling.
Filters & pages. Filter the directory by teacher or class, or click any teacher/class tag on a post to see everything for it. Click a username to see all of someone's posts.

Votes, saves, and discussion

👍 Helpful votes. Found something genuinely useful? Vote it up — sort by “Most helpful” to see the community's favorites first.
☆ Save. Bookmark any post and it lands in your Saved tab so you can come back to it before the test.
Forum. Ask questions, share tips, coordinate study sessions. Replies can nest, so real conversations can happen — and the 🔔 bell tells you when someone replies to you.
Announcements. Updates from the admins live in their own tab so they never get buried.

That's it! Log in anytime to edit or delete your posts, manage your classes, see what you've saved, or just look around.

Happy studying!

User Policy

St. Mark's students only. Markup is currently restricted to St. Mark's students. Anyone attempting to use it from outside the school will be removed.
Keep it study-related. All activity on Markup should be related to schoolwork or studying. Off-topic material will be removed, and accounts that repeatedly post non-study content may be removed.
No spam. Spamming will get your account banned and your posts deleted.
Admin moderation. Admins may edit or delete posts when necessary — usually to fix software glitches or formatting issues, but also to enforce this policy.

Zero-tolerance policy

Anything inappropriate — harmful or non-age-appropriate conduct, bullying of any kind — will be acted on immediately. There are no warnings.

All posts are saved to a permanent database and remain visible to admins even after you delete them.

Teachers are welcome

St. Mark's faculty are more than welcome to make an account and look around. Browse what your students are sharing, see which resources are getting used, or post your own — study guides, practice problems, supplemental readings, anything you think might help. If you ever want a post or resource removed, message the admins from the footer link.
