Live classes
Teach live from any browser. Nothing to install for you or your students.
Cameras, microphones and screen sharing work in the browser. Students join with a link or a code, and chat, questions and raised hands keep everyone involved.
Breakout groups
Split the class into groups, each with its own video room and board page. Visit any group.
Calm by default
Students can join muted, and hosts can mute one person or everyone at once.
Background blur
Blur your background and reduce background noise from the class controls.
Video and audio
Cameras, microphones and screen sharing in the browser.
Everyone uses the camera and microphone they already have, in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox. Share your screen with the class, or let one student present theirs.
- Check your devices in the lobby first
- Blur your background and reduce noise
- Let a student share their screen
Joining
A waiting room and simple ways in.
Students join with the room link, a code or a QR code. Allow guests and they join without an account. With the waiting room on, you admit each person yourself.
- Guests join with just a name
- Admit people one by one or all
- Passcodes and invite links that expire
Taking part
Chat, questions and raised hands.
Students raise a hand, send a reaction or message the class. Questions go to a Q&A list where classmates upvote them, and you mark each one answered.
- Ask questions with or without a name
- Pin an important chat message
- Lower all raised hands at once
Questions
Help CenterNot always. If you allow guests, anyone with the link can ask to join with just a name, and you let each guest in. Otherwise students sign in or create a free account first.
Check that your browser is allowed to use the camera and microphone, and that the right devices are selected, then rejoin. ClassNest works in Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox.
Yes. Turn on the waiting room so you admit each person, ask for a passcode, or limit the room to your workspace or course roster. You can remove anyone from the people panel.
