Use Case: Course Creator – Seamlessly Connecting Students to Your Private Group
Friday, August 1, 2025 - 04:32
When you’re teaching online or in-person, building a sense of community among your students can be just as valuable as the lessons themselves. But let’s face it: getting everyone to join your private group — whether it’s on Facebook, Slack, Discord, or elsewhere — can be a logistical headache. Asking students to type out a long, awkward link in the middle of a session usually leads to mistakes, delays, or worse, people never joining at all.
That’s where a simple QR code on your presentation slides changes everything. Instead of giving lengthy instructions, you just say, “Scan this to join our private group instantly.” A single scan takes them straight to the invite page, no extra steps, no typos, no excuses. It’s quick, frictionless, and feels modern and professional.
For best results, make the QR code large enough to scan from anywhere in the room, and pair it with a short, readable fallback link — something like lyza.link/join-us — for those who prefer to type it in later. This dual approach gives you maximum accessibility and keeps the momentum of your class flowing.
From a behavioral standpoint, you’re removing barriers right at the moment of peak engagement. Students are most motivated to join while they’re in your session, hearing your content, and feeling the value you provide. A QR code on your slides makes it effortless for them to commit while that motivation is high — building your learning community in real time and strengthening the bond with your audience.
