Join a video lesson as a student

How students join their teacher’s video lesson, use the microphone and camera, raise a hand, share a screen when allowed and fix sound or video problems.

This page is for students, and for teachers who want to know what students see. Joining needs no account and no app: you use the same page as for your class work.

Join the lesson

  1. 1

    Open your class page

    Use your class code at join.learnworkly.com or your personal link, as usual.

  2. 2

    Tap Join lesson

    When your teacher starts a lesson you see Your teacher started a live lesson. Tap Join lesson.

  3. 3

    Check and join

    You start muted. If your teacher has allowed cameras you can choose to turn yours on. Tap Join. The first time, your browser asks to use your microphone: allow it so you can speak when asked.

What you see

On a laptop or computer the lesson sits on the right and your work stays on the left. On a phone or tablet the lesson folds into a bar at the bottom of the screen, so your questions and the Submit button are never covered. Tap the bar to open the lesson, and the arrow to fold it away again.

You see your teacher, how many people are in the lesson and the name of a classmate while they speak. When your teacher shows a classmate or a shared screen to the class, it appears big in the middle.

Frequently asked questions

I cannot hear my teacher.

Check your device volume and that the browser tab is not muted. On a phone, make sure silent mode is not blocking sound. If it still does not work, leave the lesson and join again.

My teacher cannot hear me.

Make sure you are unmuted, then check that your browser is allowed to use the microphone (the camera or microphone icon in the address bar). Allow it and tap Unmute again.

The video stopped but I can still hear.

Your connection is weak, so the video pauses to keep the sound going. It comes back by itself when the connection improves. Data saver also stops the video while the lesson is folded away.

Is the lesson recorded?

No. Nothing is recorded.
