Change Classroom Classes preferences on Mac

Use the Classes pane of Classroom preferences to see a list of your classes, add or remove classes, and change your name or picture. Classroom preferences only appears when you’re using a Mac managed by a school or institution.

To change these preferences on your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Classroom , then click Classes (if available).

Note: If your classes were installed by a mobile device management (MDM) system, you won’t be able to add or remove classes, or change your information.

Option				Description
Class list				View the list of classes you’ve added and the classes you’ve been invited to add. Classes you’ve added already are listed under Classes. Classes you’ve been invited to add are listed under New Class Invitations.
Add Class				Add new classes to your class list. Select the class in the list on the left (below New Class Invitations), click Add Class, enter the code your teacher gave you, then click Add Class. When you add a class, the teacher can access and control your Mac—for example, by opening apps, websites, and documents on it. To learn how to limit the teacher’s access to your Mac, see Change Classroom Permissions preferences.
Remove Class				Remove a class from your class list. Select the class in the list on the left, click Remove Class, then click Remove. If you remove a class, you must add it again before you can continue participating in it. If you remove all your classes, the Classroom settings are removed from your Mac and Classroom is no longer available in System Preferences.
Teacher				View the name and picture of the teacher for the selected class.
My Information				Choose your name and picture used for class. Your teacher sees this name and picture on their Mac or iPad. Use the information from your card in the Contacts app: Select Use Name & Photo from My Card. To learn how to change the information on your card, see Set up your My Card in Contacts. Enter different information: Deselect Use Name & Photo from My Card, enter your first and last name in the fields next to the picture, then click the picture to choose a picture. After you click the picture, you can: Adjust the current picture: Click Current, use the slider to adjust the picture in the frame, then click Save. Use a picture included with macOS: Click Defaults, select a picture, then click Save. Take your picture using your Mac: Click Camera; when you’re ready, click Take Photo, use the slider to adjust the picture in the frame, then click Save. Use a picture from the Photos app: Click Photos. To see specific photos from a time, place, or album, click an arrow below photos, then select a group of photos. Select a picture, click Next, use the slider to adjust the picture in the frame, then click Save. Use a picture from the Photo Booth app: Click Photo Booth to see pictures you’ve taken using your Mac and the Photo Booth app. Select a picture, click Next, use the slider to adjust the picture in the frame, then click Save. Instead of clicking the picture, you can drag an image file from the Finder onto the picture.
