A live lecture side panel for Zoom

Zoom Momentum

Built for college lectures on Zoom. Professors see how the room is following along in real time. Students get a live timeline, glossary, and a way to bookmark anything they miss.

Demo

See it run inside a real Zoom meeting.

A short screen recording of both flows: the host launching a check-in and the student following the live anchor, bookmarking, and opening the recovery pack after class.

What it does

A live classroom loop inside Zoom.

Four lightweight tools that work together: real-time check-ins for the host, a live transcript-aware view for students, and a recovery path for whatever didn't land in class.

01

Professor's Pulse

Built prototype

AI-generated comprehension checks, mid-lecture.

Generate, edit, and launch a short poll without leaving the meeting. Students answer in seconds and results come back live.

02

Warm-Up Arena

Live in dev

A timed review game to wake the room up before lecture starts.

Launch a fast quiz round. Students answer against the clock and the app keeps a live leaderboard, closer to a game than an LMS.

03

Live Anchor

RTMS-ready concept

A live topic timeline and glossary, built from the transcript.

The app reads the live lecture transcript, marks topic changes, and surfaces new terms, so a student who looks up still knows where the class is.

04

Recovery Agent

Post-class prototype

Confusion captured in class, repaired after.

Students bookmark confusing moments privately. After class those bookmarks become a recovery pack: explanation, practice, and follow-up reading.

Fellowship project

Made through the Zoom Fellowship at ASU Next Lab.

Built by Shitij Mathur

A student build aimed at the parts of a live lecture that current tools don't cover.

Real-time engagement, transcript-aware orientation, and a way to close the loop on confusion after class, designed to live inside the Zoom meeting, not next to it.
