In particular, this new release features the Learning Dashboard, a live view of in-class analytics that helps teachers answer three questions during their online class:
- Who is attending (and for how long)?
- Are students participating? (based on talking, chatting, raising hands, emojis, and responding to polls)
- Are students learning? (based on responses to polls)
