How do students join a lesson?

What happens to my lesson after the students are finished with it?
You can keep using it however you'd like! Your virtual classrooms are persistent (think of them like 3D websites), you can access them at anytime and you can continually alter or update them. Your students can also revisit them at anytime during the school year to refresh or re-learn. And you can use them again with next year's students.
You can even share them with other teachers at your school if you're on a school account.
