  Hello, is it possible to add an ‘online class’ to my website? I know most likely I will have to upgrade, which is fine, but I don’t want to do that unless I know for sure that I will be able to do this. I am starting an online notary class business, where my students can take courses online. Any information would be helpful, thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  What features would you like to implement in this online class? Please mention the specifics about what you want to do with this site for it to be an online class.

  Hello,
  I would like for my students to be able to take quizzes, tests, view pictures, possibly videos, and in the future, live video streaming.

  Hi,

  You’re able to do this even on a free WordPress website. For more information on how to make a quiz, click here Just a little heads up: if you implement this, remember to embed each individual question inside the [quiz] [/quiz] tags.

  It’s easy to insert pictures on your WordPress.com site. For more information on how to deal with pictures, check out this article.

  You can also have videos on your site. If you want a free solution, you’ll just embed the video from another site. If you want to host the video on your blog, you’ll need at least a Premium plan. More information about videos here.

  Live video streaming should also be possible. It seems to be free on the WordPress.com side, but you’ll need to pay for a third party solution. More information about this here. To check out the prices for the third party solution called ustream.tv, check this site.
