The Collaborative Classroom feature allows you to review materials with students in a virtual setting, provide in-depth instruction on a lesson, and respond to student questions or feedback. The Collaborative Classroom title bar displays the number of students using the Raise Hand feature to ask questions or the number of students engaged in a Chat discussion. Once you start a Collaborative Classroom session, you can collapse the Collaborative Classroom panel to monitor for Raise Hand and Chat requests.
