What is Class for Zoom

Class creates a teaching specific interface on top of Zoom. Class, sometimes referred to as Class for Zoom, can be used as an alternative for synchronous class sessions (instead of Zoom or Collaborate). See how Class for Zoom can help you.

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS!!!

We are looking for instructors who would like to consider using Class in fall 2022 to hold their synchronous course sessions, as an early adopter.

  • View a recording of the “Class 101” and “Class 102” training.
  • Class for Zoom Webinar on Tuesday, September 6, 10:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Want to try it out?

Complete a short interest form so we can create your account (Faculty/Staff).

For your synchronous class sessions, have you ever wished you could:
  • Monitor activities in all Breakout Rooms at the same time.
  • Easily track attendance and participation.
  • See who is paying attention.
  • Allow students to only share their cameras with the instructor.
  • Proctor tests by viewing each student’s screen live.
  • Sort your students in multiple ways (participation, alphabetically, hand raised, etc.).
  • Keep your cameras (as well as other presenters) in the front of the “room.”
  • Jump into a private video chat with a student during a class session.
These and many other features are available in Class!

We will host demo sessions to help you decide if Class would enhance your teaching and also provide you with the Class software to test. Class is new and features are being added monthly. Support is available from Class and Mason ITS.
