<h3>Virtual Classroom for WordPress Features</h3>

<p>The student can simply click Join from the page where the shortcode is added and enter the BBB room where the teacher can initiate a virtual classroom session.</p>
<p>After the session is over the plugin can also display the recording of the session on the same page so that the students can take the keynotes from the session later on.</p>
