Frequently asked questions
What is plat.plus?
A platform for your courses: notifications on every device, meetings in the browser, a freely designed course page and tasks with submissions, feedback and grading, set up in minutes. Everyone finds everything in one place, on the phone too.
Who is plat.plus for?
For everyone who teaches or learns: at university, in tutoring and continuing education, in workshops or privately. With an account you create a course and run it. Your participants come along with the course's link or code. Anyone under 18 needs their parents' consent.
My university's learning platform is unavailable. What now?
You can carry on right away with plat.plus, because it runs independently of your university's systems. You create your account yourself, with a code by email, set up your course and share the link, the QR code or the course code with your students. You don't need a participant list for that.
How do I join a course?
Easily: with the link or QR code from their lecturers, or with the course code under My courses → Join with a code. All it takes is an account with a code by email, no password needed. Some courses briefly confirm new participants first.
Can I try plat.plus?
Of course, in the demo course, no account needed. Look at it as a student or as a lecturer, with hand-ins and feedback, and try everything in the editor. Your changes stay in your browser only, everything else starts afresh every night.
Is there an app?
Yes. plat.plus runs in the browser and installs as an app on laptops and phones, with notifications. On an iPhone, tap Share in Safari and choose Add to Home Screen.
Who is behind plat.plus?
plat.plus is an independent project, made to make teaching and learning easier. It isn't tied to any university or other institution: everyone who teaches or studies is welcome. Our privacy policy explains in detail how we handle your data.
What happens to my content?
Your content belongs to you, with all rights. plat.plus stores it, backs it up and shows it to the people you meant it for. We don't use it for anything else. You can delete your account yourself at any time.
