CLAS can serve as an excellent tool for replicating the interactions of in-person learning.

Students develop a community feeling by working in small groups, apply what they are learning in other components of the course and discuss these activities with their partner.

CLAS helps build group interactions, promote discussion and provide students with some experiences that were comparable to observation of material in an in-person lab setting.

CLAS allows you to have a discussion which is very purposeful and to the point. I find that it not only saves time, but also makes it much more meaningful.

Videos of instructors solving mathematical problems on CLAS were annotated by students, allowing them to build the link between language use and mathematical practice.
