Quick answer

What are class-time limits?

Class-time limits are the school version of quiet hours. Teachers set time and usage limits for a whole class, pause student chat during set hours, and override the limits for an individual student.

  • School version of quiet hours, set by class
  • Usage limits per day or session
  • Per-student exceptions without changing the class
  • Pause chat and tools for test day in one action
  • Admins set school and grade defaults
