About raise hand and reactions
Instructors and participants can use the raise hand and reactions features to interact during a Live Hub session. Learners raise their hands to signal that they want to speak, and send reactions to give quick, non-verbal feedback. Instructors can view reactions and raised hands in real time to manage participation, all without interrupting the session flow.
