For Educators

A classroom version of PartyLine built for discussion

Use PartyLine to help students compare issue priorities, see how public officials vote, and talk through political differences using the public record instead of campaign noise.

Why educators use it

The classroom flow is built to support discussion, reflection, and private participation.

No-account student participation

Students join by opening the class link or scanning the QR code — no app, no account, no sign-up. No names or emails are collected, and classroom responses are stored with no IP address or IP hash — the 30-day IP-address hash our main survey keeps (see the privacy policy) does not apply to classroom submissions. A student's IP is used only momentarily during submission for bot screening and rate limiting, and is never stored with their answers. Each response is stored under a random per-device token, and PartyLine only ever displays them as class aggregates, never as individual answers.

Fast setup for live class use

Create a class in seconds, then share a QR code or direct link so students can join from their own devices.

Better civic discussion

Compare the class average on each issue to open a discussion, without turning the room into a partisan shouting match. Class results appear only once at least five students have responded — a floor enforced in the database itself, so a small class’s numbers physically cannot be returned.

How it works

1. Create a class

Create a free teacher account, tick the privacy acknowledgment, then name your class and generate its join link and QR code.

2. Students respond privately

Students open the classroom survey through the link or QR code. Their responses are never attached to a personal PartyLine account. A copy is held in the student’s own browser until they submit, then cleared.

3. Review aggregate results

Once enough responses are collected, PartyLine unlocks aggregate classroom patterns you can discuss together.

Privacy by design

Classroom mode is built around anonymity, educator acknowledgment, and a minimum response threshold before results appear.
