When you search for virtual classroom software, you're not looking for another generic video meeting tool. You're looking for an online classroom where you can teach: explain on a whiteboard, split students into small groups, run a quick quiz, decide who can speak and share, and continue the lesson right inside Moodle or your school platform.

Generic meetings give you video tiles and chat. A real virtual classroom helps you teach the way you teach in person: show, discuss in groups, check understanding, take notes together and keep the class focused — all in one private room you control.

That's what plugNmeet is built for: open source virtual classroom software with shared whiteboard, breakout rooms, quiz-style polls, shared notes, waiting room, simple class controls and Moodle integration. Free to use, private by design, with your own logo and colors.
