Keep SYNKii open in another tab. Follow the steps for your task; optional actions are labelled so you know what can wait.
Follow the numbered steps and highlighted controls. Screenshots show the actual SYNKii interface; example dates and settings may differ from yours.
1
Open your scheduled classroom
On the dashboard, find the lesson in Today’s teaching. Check the student and time, then click Enter classroom when it is available. For a lesson on another day, find it in Schedule first.

Check: The classroom for that lesson opens. Use this for an in-person lesson too.
2
Find the teaching tools
Find Tools below the cameras on the left of the classroom. Use the metronome play button, or open its settings button to change the tempo.

Set up one example
For the metronome, choose the tempo before starting it. Show the student the control you are changing. Check that they can hear the example.

Stop and return to the lesson
Stop playback when your example is finished, then return to the score or lesson activity. You can finish using the tool here; setting follow-up work is optional.

Check: The tool is no longer playing and you can continue the lesson.
Can’t find the same screen? Check that you are in the right account and have selected the right learner or lesson. On a small screen, open the navigation menu to see the page names. Read any access or availability message before continuing.
If the student cannot hear the tool
Check the selected audio device and any microphone or instrument input the tool needs. Ask the online student what they hear: sound working on your device does not confirm it reaches theirs.
Other classroom features
AI notes and video recording each need to be started separately. Opening a classroom does not start either. Use these only when you need them and follow the confirmation shown.
Open the scheduled Classroom before teaching, whether online or in person.
