  1. I am a math teacher. Often I need to enter special characters such as greek letters, square root symbols, exponents, line segment symbols above letters, etc. Do you have a hack that will let me do this? Is there any plan to include something like an equation editor in your program? I’d really like to use this with my students, but right now I’d be pretty much limited to vocabulary practice.

  2. Hello, it is possible to insert a video question quithout the youtube titles bar? I´m a teacher of history of music, and I would like to question about the name of the works of the music in the video… and that´s often written in the title bar!

  3. I have some large classes. I feel students would be more engaged if their teams were smaller. Is there a way to make more teams with fewer students each. Also, is there a way to assign students to teams instead of having them randomly assign?
