Running sessions Create sessions, manage the question queue and set up your classroom.

Answer questions in the queue

Help students in order, answer out of order, shuffle, filter and add questions yourself.

When students raise their hands, the session page becomes a queue.

Now and Up next

  • Now: the student you're helping. You'll see their name, question type, how long they've waited and their comment, if they added one.
  • Up next: everyone else who's waiting, in order. The small label at the end of each row (1st, 2nd and so on) shows how many times that student has asked for help.
The queue: the student being helped is under Now, everyone else under Up next

Mark a question as answered

When you're done helping the student under Now, click Mark as answered. Their hand goes down and the next student moves to Now.

To help someone out of order, click the check icon at the end of their row in Up next.

Shuffle the queue

Click Shuffle (the dice icon above the queue) to put waiting students in random order. Handy when the whole class raises their hands at once.

Filter by question type

Use the chips above the queue to see only one kind of question. All shows everyone, and each question type chip shows how many students are waiting in it.

Add a question for a student

If a student asks out loud or doesn't have a device, you can add them to the queue yourself:

  1. Click + Add a question.
  2. Type the student's name.
  3. Choose a question type.
  4. Click Add.
Adding a question for a student

When nobody is waiting, you'll see "You're all caught up".
