Questions
Short answers, with a link to the full page.
Learners
Do learners need to install anything? No. Each learner gets their own computer in the cloud and opens it from My learning. A recent browser is enough.
Which computer do they get? The course decides. Linux and security courses run on an Ubuntu computer in the cloud; accounting and office courses run on Windows.
A learner’s sign-in link didn’t work. Links work once and last 15 minutes. They select Get a new sign-in link. See Signing in.
A learner can’t join with their code. The code may have expired. Make a new one on the offering. See Join codes.
Admins
How do I see who is stuck? Home lists everyone who has spent over 10 minutes on one step. Open a name to watch their lab live. See Home.
Can I change a published course? No. A published version is fixed so results stay comparable. Write a new version, publish it, and move offerings to it. See Courses and versions.
Can I add hundreds of students at once? Yes, with a CSV file. Nothing is saved until you confirm the preview. See Imports.
Can I turn the AI tutor off? Yes, in Settings, and you can set a monthly limit. See AI tutor.
