Inviting students to participate in online lessons through livetea.ch is a straightforward process. Whether you're a seasoned educator or new to the platform, this guide will help you smoothly transition your students into a virtual classroom environment.
Step 1: Select a Lesson Plan
Livetea.ch offers a vast repository of over 6,000 lesson plans, catering to various educational needs and levels. Start by browsing through the library and selecting a lesson plan that aligns with your objectives and the needs of your students. This selection ensures that every educator can find materials that perfectly match their teaching style and goals.
Step 2: Start the Lesson
Once you have chosen a suitable lesson plan, click on "Teach Online" to initiate the lesson. This action will take you to the lobby screen, a gateway where you can manage your teaching session before it goes live.
Step 3: Share the Lesson Link
In the lobby, you will find the option to copy the lesson link. This URL is crucial as it serves as the entry pass for your students. Share this link with your students via email, chat, or your preferred communication method.
- Pro Tip: To ensure that your lesson starts smoothly, advise your students to join the virtual classroom about five minutes before the scheduled start time. This buffer allows everyone to settle in, address any technical issues, and ensures that the lesson can start on time.
Step 4: Managing Participants
If you are already in the lesson and need to invite more participants or resend the link, you can easily find and copy the meeting link from the "Participants" list. This feature is particularly useful for adding attendees on the fly or for those who may have missed the initial invitation.
Exciting Developments
We’re excited to share that we’re developing a new tool called CockPit, designed to enhance the livetea.ch experience for teachers, students, and managers. CockPit will offer a personalised dashboard where you can easily create, manage, and schedule lessons. One of its standout features is automated lesson invitations. These include all the key details, such as the join link, and scheduled lessons will appear directly in your CockPit calendar to help you stay on track.
Final Thoughts
By following these steps and using the upcoming CockPit tool, inviting students to your online lessons will become a seamless part of your routine, letting you focus on teaching rather than admin work.
