# Recording Emotions

Recording emotions with Moodly is simple and engaging. Check-ins can either be performed on a classroom device or via the Learner website.

## Classroom Device

{% hint style="info" %}
For best results we recommend that a designated IPAD / Laptop be used for check-in. This device can then easily be shared amongst the Learners to allow them to discretely record how they are feeling.
{% endhint %}

### Visit <https://submit.moodly.education>

Click on 1st Check-in (or 2nd Check-in) under the Class Checkin section of the side menu.

Allow a Learner to select their name/avatar from the class screen.

After selecting their name they will be prompted with a window asking how they are feeling today.

From here if you have enabled a Follow up Question from the Zone Settings another window will appear asking to give a reason why. In our case "scared" is configured this way.

When a pupil has completed their check-in with Moodly a tick will appear in the top right hand corner of their avatar and it will glow green.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you want to use the 2nd Check-in feature, the steps are exactly the same, the only difference is selecting the "2nd Check-in" from the side menu.
{% endhint %}

### Using the Learner App

Once a learner has logged into the app see [Learner Login (optional)](/getting-started/learner-login-optional.md)

The Learner will be prompted with a dashboard of Daily Activities and Active Surveys (if using)

Selecting a Dashboard Tile will prompt the Learner to select how they are feeling.

Congratulations! You've recorded your first set of Learner emotions.

The next guide will help you visualising the emotions from the class register.
