Inside a course
Student editing
Open a section for your students to write in, and close it again.
By default students read the course. You open editing where you want them to work.
Switching it on
Right-click the section in the sidebar and choose Enable student editing. An unlocked icon marks it, and students can now write in that document exactly like you do — same editor, same blocks, same live sync.
Remove student editing locks it back. What they wrote stays.
It cascades
Enabling editing on a section enables it on everything under it. Open a whole chapter in one gesture, or a single exercise by putting it in its own section.
What it is good for
- An exercise sheet the class fills in together.
- A shared summary at the end of a chapter, written by whoever is in the room.
- Group work on a whiteboard inside an open section.
Editing and hiding
A hidden section is invisible to students, whether editing is on or not. Hidden wins: prepare the section with editing already enabled, then reveal it when the class starts.
