there are lots of names for the feeders that you describe, but if it is
sectioned and has a slot in the center for the bees to climb up, and you
pour the syrup directly into the sections on each side of the slot is
called a hive top feeder, if the shallow super has baggies to hold the
syrup, it is called a baggie feeder.  Lots of luck with your class
