Social media has become a huge part of our world today, we connect with our friends, our families, and even our teachers and classmates through these media. Now with Class Chat there is a new way of communicating with your classmates in a student controlled social media.

Class chat is a simple application which allows students to converse with their classmates in a chatroom style app. It’s an app for students by students. There will be a dashboard which displays the different classes they are enrolled in. Here there is the option to select which class you want to view. Each person has a profile where they can display personal information if they please. There will be simply a page for each class, and a profile for each user. Students will need to confirm their admittance to classes through their student ID numbers. Class Chat will then confirm through MaineStreet that the student is in such classes, and the student will be admitted.

The Idea for ClassChat came from Slack, a communication network which allowed groups of people to communicate, often used by teachers for their class. ClassChat is aimed specifically at the students, creating an environment for these students to create their own atmosphere not the teacher.
