Raise hand

Just like in a real classroom, a student can get the teacher's attention by raising their hand. As a result, the teacher will receive a sound notification and see a notification icon informing them a student is asking for assistance. The student may then communicate further with the teacher by sending a message via the public or huddle chat (if enabled).

To raise a hand, students must press the Raise Hand  button at the bottom-right of the student canvas screen. A yellow icon indicates the teacher should have received the notification.

Student view: The student pressed the Raise Hand button to get the teacher's attention. 

Teacher view: The teacher has opened the dashboard and can see which student has raised their hand, indicated by a yellow hand-raised icon.
