cc-class Interactive Classroom · User Manual
cc-class is a cross-platform, LAN-based classroom management suite for schools, university labs, training rooms and computer exam centers. It consists of two programs:
- Teacher (TeacherApp) — the teacher's "console": screen broadcast, monitor students, remote control, lock screens, check-in, exams, file distribution, and more.
- Student (StudentApp) — installed on every student PC; it starts automatically at boot, finds the teacher machine by itself and connects, then receives the teacher's commands.
You do **not** choose which app a machine runs.
cc-class decides whether a machine is a teacher or a student automatically, based on the computer name, and manages the desktop shortcuts for you. See 👉 Teacher vs Student auto-detection.

Licensing
The software works in trial mode out of the box; the trial allows up to 5 students to connect at once. For more, open Register Software in the teacher app and send the on-screen "machine code" to your vendor for a license key.
All screenshots in this manual use the English interface; the software follows the system language automatically (Chinese/English/Japanese/Korean and more) with identical button positions.
