Navigate the app

The top bar

The top bar gives you quick access to key actions from anywhere in the app.

Left side:

Center:

Home — takes you back to the dashboard.
Feedback — opens the feedback page to report bugs, suggest features, or ask questions.

Right side:

Language — switch between 20 supported languages.
Guided tutorials — view your tutorial progress and jump to any tutorial to walk through it.
Send feedback — report bugs, suggest features, send praise, or ask questions.
Profile — opens your settings and preferences.

The left sidebar is your main navigation. It's organized into four groups:

Classes — My Classes, Timetable, Planner
Planning — Lessons, Students, Classwork (where you create assignments and manage grade topics)
Assessment — Grades, Attendance, Standards
Key Activities — Tasks

At the bottom of the sidebar, you'll also see your trial status, AI credit usage, and storage usage.

Collapse the sidebar with Ctrl + \ to get more screen space.

Most pages use a consistent layout with a class selector on the left and the main content on the right:

Left panel — class selector. Pick a class to filter everything else.
Main panel — the page content. Student list, gradebook grid, classwork list, attendance grid, etc.
Detail views — click into a row to open a detail panel or a focused modal (student profile, lesson editor, assignment viewer, etc.).

Panels resize as you interact with them. Click something in the main panel to drill into more detail.

You can navigate EMStudio two ways:

Feature-first — click any page in the sidebar (Lessons, Grades, Attendance, etc.), then pick a class from the left panel.
Class-first — click into a class from My Classes to open the class page, then navigate to the section you need.

Same data, different entry point.

Teachers with one or two classes often prefer class-first. Teachers juggling many classes tend to prefer feature-first.
