How to Change the Number of Seats at a Table

By default, an Engageli classroom opens with the maximum number of seats allowed at a table: 10. As an instructor, you can easily change the number of seats at a table.

Application

If you use the application to teach, you can change the number of seats in a table by going into the settings of your live classroom and then selecting Classroom Configuration. Select the number of seats for the tables, and then click the Close button. The changes will be applied immediately.

Browser

1. Go to the portal, select Details, and then click the Configurations tab.

2. Select the number of seats for the tables, and then click the Save Changes button.

3. The next time you start your Engageli class, you will see your new classroom configuration.

Pro Tip! When deciding the number of seats, keep in mind that if you have multiple TAs who will visit tables, an available empty seat will be needed. Instructors, co-instructors, and one TA can visit tables without needing an empty seat.

Note: If you want to change the number of seats at the tables, you must do so before you start the class if you teach using Engageli on Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. You can change the number of seats during class only if you are teaching on the instructor application.
