Work with classes

Working with classes in your teaching tool can save you a lot of time, and makes it easier for your students too. In this course you'll learn how to work with classes in LessonUp, and which tips you really shouldn't miss to save time.

When you are teaching a live lesson, you can choose to teach directly to a class. This way your students don't have to enter the lesson pin code. This has several advantages when teaching:

It saves time at the beginning of the lesson, you don't have to wait for students who haven't entered the code yet.
Students always come into the lesson with their real names.
You will not have 'unwanted' students in your lesson.

Students have an account on lessonup.app. Once you started the live lesson, your students will see a notification in their account that the lesson is starting.

When you want to share a lesson with your students, it is best to do this with a class. This way you can share the lesson with all students in once. Also you will be able to access lesson reporting. More about that in the course 'Keep track of student progress'. Once you shared the lesson, it appears in the students' account on lessonup.app. The students can then go through the lesson at their own pace.

It is also possible to share the lesson with specific students in that class. Choose 'select students'.

If you have not yet created a class, you may want to do so now. It's simple! In your LessonUp account, follow these steps:

Go to My Classes
Click on + Create a new class
Give your class a name
Click on students and add students
Let your students fill in the class code in lessonup.app
Or share the invite link with your students
