One shared device. Every staff member. No shared logins.
Weāve released Staff Room Mode, making it faster and easier for educators to securely use shared classroom devices without repeatedly entering emails and passwords.
š Tap, PIN & Go
Keep a classroom device logged into Room Mode and let staff quickly switch into their own Illumine account.
Each staff member simply:
Selects their name
Enters their unique 4-digit Room Mode PIN
Switches on the toggle "Focus on selected rooms" if they would like to focus on specific room(s).
Once signed in, staff sees their own classrooms, students, permissions, and notifications - so everyone gets the right experience without sharing credentials.
Here's a quick sneak peek
š Every Staff Member Gets Their Own PIN
Staff can view their personal Room Mode PIN directly from their profile, making it easy to access shared devices securely.
Here's a screenshot of Staff Personal Profile with Room Mode Pin visible.
šÆ Focus Mode for Specific Classrooms
Need a shared device dedicated to particular rooms?
Turn on Toggle Focus on Selected Rooms and select one or more classrooms. Staff using that device will only see the relevant rooms, helping keep the classroom experience focused.
If multiple rooms are selected, staff in Room mode will be able to mark attendance and post activities across all selected rooms.
š Switch Staff in Seconds
When a staff member is finished, simply tap Exit to return to the staff selection screen. The next educator can select their name, enter their PIN, and continue.
