Adds live-class session scheduling on lessons (join link, date/time, timezone) with automatic 24h and 1h reminder emails plus a calendar invite (.ics), a time-change notification with an updated invite, a teacher-authored welcome email and session invite on enrollment, and a "Notify students" quiz nudge. LMS gets an upcoming live-sessions card and Join buttons, plus a reusable live-session card component (3 states) in @cio/ui with a Storybook story. The sidebar content tree now reflects sequential progression locking like the content list, and the course-completion confetti regression is fixed. Org-based emails no longer reference ClassroomIO by name. Docs add live-class, welcome-email, and course-progression guides, expand the certificates guide (design, signatures, corrected labels), move plan-required callouts to the top, flatten how-to-guides to the docs root with redirects, and add screenshots. Includes an add-docs-image skill.

In ClassroomIO, exercises are a great way to assess students' understanding through practice activities. Once you've [set up your organization](/docs/customize-organization), [created a course](/docs/create-first-course), and [added a lesson](/docs/create-first-course#adding-lessons), you can start creating exercises. Follow the process below to create your first exercise.

## Notify students about a quiz
|
|
|
|
When a quiz is ready, you can email every enrolled student a one-click link to take it. On the exercise page, open the
|
|
**⋯** menu at the top and choose **Notify students**.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The send runs in the background. A progress indicator appears while emails go out, then confirms when it is done. You can
|
|
run it again at any time to nudge students who have not taken the quiz yet.
|
|
|
|
<Callout type="info">
|
|
Notifying students is handy after a live session: schedule the quiz, then send the notification so attendees know to
|
|
complete it. See [Run a Live Class](/docs/live-class).
|
|
</Callout>
