What is WhyClass?
WhyClass is WhyCloud’s online class platform. Academies manage courses, classes, sessions and exams in the WhyCloud console (“Online classes”); teachers and students sign in on whyclass.ir. One person can be in several academies and sees them all with one account.
Set up in minutes
Console → Online classes → Overview → “Set up the academy”. The wizard asks for the academy name, the first course, the first class, teachers and the roster. Paste the roster from a spreadsheet, one person per line with number and name; the preview counts valid and duplicate numbers.
Courses and classes
A course is content (chapters, slides, files and a question bank); a class is a group of people taking one or more courses together, with its own roster, invite link, messenger group and report card. “Open enrollment” lets people outside the roster request to join.
Course and class codes
Codes are made from the name and are readable, e.g. AIRO101 or KHLB-05P. Change the template in Academy settings → Codes with the tokens {ABBR} {SEQ} {YEAR} {YY} {TERM} {MM}; any code can be edited.
Sessions
Sessions → “New session”. A weekly repeat creates several sessions at once with a preview of the dates. Prepare slides and questions beforehand; a started session goes live, can be recorded automatically and records attendance.
Live class
Teachers and students join on whyclass.ir: whiteboard, slides and PDFs, screen sharing, audio and video, raised hands and in-class questions with points — on phones too.
Exams and practice
Exams → “New exam”: questions from the course bank, time limit, open window and when results show. Import questions from text. Practice tests do not count toward grades.
Report cards and points
Each class’s final grade combines exams, in-class questions, attendance and the teacher’s grade with your weights. Points for attendance, right answers and approved summaries convert to credit under the academy’s rules.
Student sign-in
Students sign in on whyclass.ir with their mobile number and WhyCloud password (the default) or an SMS code. New people create an account with an SMS code and their name. The portal installs like an app on phones.
Several academies
People in several academies pick “All academies” or one of them at the top of the portal; classes, sessions, exams and points carry the academy’s label.
Telegram
Reminders and recordings go through the WhyCloud bot; academies need no bot of their own. Students open the class’s Telegram link and share their number with the Telegram button. Academies can turn Telegram off in settings.
Add to calendar
On a session page, “Calendar” adds it to Google Calendar or downloads an .ics for Apple and Outlook; “All sessions” is one file with every upcoming session. Each event has a 15-minute reminder.
The academy page
Console → Online classes → Academy page: set the address (like whyclass.ir/aseman), cover, about, city, phone, website, Instagram and Telegram channel, then turn “Published” on. The page shows courses, teachers and classes with open enrollment, each with “Request to join”, and is ready for search engines.
Always live
Console and portal pages refresh every few seconds and whenever you return to the tab: a session that starts, a new member or an open exam shows up at once.
