The demo classroom is a practice class with 18 sample students and about eight weeks of work already in it. Anyone with a free account can open one. No approval needed, and the book part needs no account at all.
What happens when you open it
Open the demo
Choose Open a demo class on the For Teachers page, or Open the teacher demo on the Textbooks page. The direct link is /teacher-demo, which you can also send to a colleague.
You start in the book
It opens on chapter 4, where a short guide shows what a student does: the hands-on steps, the practice quiz, and handing in QuickBooks work.
Then the Teacher Dashboard
The last step of the guide takes you to the demo class, and a walkthrough of the dashboard starts. If you are not signed in yet, this is where you sign in or create a free account, with a code we email you.
Open it again later and you get the same demo class back, with the same tour. The Walkthrough button on the class page replays just the dashboard part.
