The teacher’s tools are all on the class desk. When school mode is on, open the desk from the School section in Settings (select Class desk or Teacher desk) or from the Class desk button at the top of the class box. If no teacher is signed in on the device, opening it needs the teacher password (Open the desk). Students can never open it.

The approval tray

Every student share goes to the approval tray before it is posted. A piece shows in the class box only once you approve it.

• ✓ Approve: Places the piece in the class box, where every student in the class can see it.
• Send back: Turns the share down. The piece shows as returned on the student’s shelf, so they can change it and send it again.
• The teacher’s own shares skip the tray and go up right away.

Take down on any card in the class box removes it right away.

The roster

The Students section lists every seat, showing the student’s name (only the teacher sees it) and the username the app made. To add a seat, type the student’s name in Add a student… and select + Seat. Select ✕ to remove a seat. Pieces shared by a removed seat stay in the class box until you remove them with Take down.

Student access

Students can only see approved classmate shares in the class box, the Ünflat featured shelf, and Learn tutorial cards. The wider community is turned off.

Closing the class

Close the class ends the class. It needs a second tap (Really close it? Tap again). It deletes all seats and class box pieces from the device. The device library, shared and unshared pieces alike, stays as it is.
