The useful difference
What is Classroom?
Schedule and join live classes in the browser, share materials and review attendance. Recording and transcription depend on class settings and permissions. Class summaries and recordings are available only when generated or recorded.
Recording is optional and depends on settings and permissions. A recording or summary appears only if it was created for the class.
From question to action
How Classroom works
- 01The teacher schedules a live class and shares materials before it starts. Students join with a link.
- 02Join the browser video room and share materials. Attendance is tracked; recording depends on the class settings and permissions.
- 03After class, review shared materials and any available summary or recording.
Two sides of learning
Made for your part in the lesson.
For students
- Join the live class from a link in your browser, through a short waiting room.
- Attendance is taken when you join; no separate roll call.
- After class, find the materials, any available summary or recording, and rate the class.
For teachers
- Schedule a class with its topic, audience and materials, and start it within its time window.
- Run the live room: manage participants, share materials, end the class for everyone.
- Afterwards, review attendance, the class ratings and your own notes.
Studying in Germany
A familiar topic can still hide an unfamiliar task.
Knowing the formula is one thing; deciding what an exam task asks you to do is another. Bring the exact wording and work from your school’s curriculum.
For an Abitur maths task, identify the method before doing the calculation. For a written response, check whether the task asks you to describe, analyse or evaluate.
Give your Bundesland, school year and course level where relevant. Keep your school’s specification as the reference for Abitur, MSA, IB or IGCSE work.
Before you start
Classroom questions
Does Virtual Classroom take attendance?
Attendance is tracked. Recording is optional and permission-dependent. Summaries and recordings are shown only when they are available for the class.
Do students need to install anything?
No. Students join with a link in the browser. Flow is a Progressive Web App, so there is nothing to download.
Who can run a Virtual Classroom?
Teachers at an institution on Flow. Teacher and classroom features are institution features, so the school sets up teachers and sections first. Once that is done, a teacher signs in with the same Gyanis account as everywhere else.
