ClickView allows teachers and admin users, to create virtual classrooms. Much like your real world classrooms, students can be assigned and grouped which in turn will allow for blended teaching, just like in the real classroom.
When you create a Classroom, you are automatically added as the owner of the Classroom. You can then go to the Teachers tab and invite other teachers into your Classroom so that they can easily share content with your students.
How do I create a Classroom?
To create a classroom, click on the Classrooms menu item from the left hand side of the screen.
Click the + Create new classroom button, and give your classroom a name, i.e. Classroom 5-A.
The Classrooms screen will show all classrooms created at your school, and you can save a classroom as a favourite by simply clicking the star in the top left of each classroom. Favourite classrooms will appear on the left hand menu bar for quick and easy access.
How do I archive a Classroom?
Classrooms that have been archived won’t be able to be accessed, shared to, or appear in Analytics. Students however will still be able to view content that has been shared to the classroom or classroom groups. ClickView Administrators will be able to access archived Classrooms and restore or permanently delete them from the Archived Classrooms page in Settings.
