Classes are groupings of learners. These can be as small as just one person or as large as one hundred people. 

Classes are a way of helping the system collate insight for teachers in the schedule. They help teachers understand the needs of the learners in that group and how they are responding to the teaching they are receiving. 

In a more global sense, classes help the system identify similar groupings of students from other geographical regions so that insight can be shared. In this way teachers are not just limited to understanding what works in their own region but are also given a neat package of ideas from other countries.

Classes also help when it comes to collaboration. If a teacher requests assistance in planning for a class, they can simply share the class history with other teachers who can then provide more relevant assistance. In this way collaborating benefits not just from narrow artificial intelligence but also from human input. 

This makes classes one of the most useful objects on the system.
