Class mode for teachers

The whole class studies quietly – with Pota.

Pota-Sensei and your class sit in a classroom on the projector. Stay quiet until the time is up, and your classroom gets something new.

Classroom on the projector with Pota-Sensei, timer and raindrops

Three steps

How a round works

  1. 1

    Add your class

    Enter a name and the number of students. Each student gets a Pota at a desk, each one dressed differently.

  2. 2

    Start a round

    Choose 15, 25 or 45 minutes and show it on the projector. The class has 3 raindrops, or 1 if you want it strict.

  3. 3

    Quiet gets rewarded

    If the class makes it, the classroom gets an upgrade: a plant, an aquarium, a class photo, a starry sky and more.

Made for the classroom

What class mode can do

Three drops, not game over

When it gets noisy, one drop is lost and Pota-Sensei says “Shhh!”. One noisy moment won’t ruin it for the whole class.

Noise level or button

The device only measures how loud the room is – or the teacher taps “✋ Too noisy”. Three levels: strict, normal, relaxed.

A room that grows

Every class has its own classroom. Upgrades unlock after 1, 3, 5, 8, 11 and 14 completed rounds.

Pota-Sensei

Pota with glasses and a cardigan stands at the blackboard. Using class mode also unlocks the outfit for your own Pota.

Big on the projector

Full screen for laptops, iPads or smartboards. Timer and drops are easy to read from the back row.

Three languages

English, German and Japanese – the blackboard in the classroom follows the app language.

The class finished the round and Pota-Sensei is happy
Done! The classroom gets something new.

Privacy: no student data

  • Only the class name, the number of students and completed rounds are saved – on the teacher’s device only.
  • Students need no account and no device of their own.
  • The microphone only measures loudness. Nothing is recorded, stored or sent.
  • No ads and no tracking in class mode.

FAQ

Does every student need a device?

No. One teacher device on the projector is enough.

Is anything recorded in the classroom?

No. The app only measures how loud it is and forgets the value right away. You can also turn the microphone off and use the “✋ Too noisy” button only.

How much does class mode cost?

Class mode is part of Pota+. You can set up your classroom without Pota+.

Which devices does it run on?

As an app on iPhone, iPad and Android, and in the browser on laptops at play.potayado.com.

What age is it for?

Any class that works quietly – from primary school to high school.
