Laravel 8 - Error Class 'App\Student' not found in StudentController.php

hopefully someone can enlighten me on this bug. Laravel 8. I am replicating a simple blog from this url: https://www.codewall.co.uk/laravel-crud-demo-with-resource-controller-tutorial/

It seems like sometimes you do these tutorials but laravel 8 is slightly different. What am I missing here? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Getting error when going to /students & a /students/create urls , I am getting different errors for

/students (index) error - Error Class 'App\Student' not found

It doesn't like the create route either which is weird because I have store method in StudentController.

/students/create (create) error - Action StudentController@store not defined. (View: C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel\lara-blog2\blog\resources\views\students\create.blade.php)

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Student;

class StudentController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $students = Student::all();
        return view('students.index', compact('students','students'));
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for creating a new resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function create()
    {
        return view('students.create');
    }

    /**
     * Store a newly created resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $this->validate($request, [
            'first_name' => 'required',
            'last_name' => 'required',
            'age' => 'required|numeric',
            'email' => 'required|email',
        ]);

        $input = $request->all();

        Student::create($input);

        return redirect()->route('students.index');
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.
     *

    public function show($id)
    {
        $student = Student::findOrFail($id);
        return view('students.show', compact('student','student'));
    }

    /**

    {
        $student = Student::find($id);
        
        return view('students.edit', compact('student','student'));
    }

    public function update(Request $request, $id)
    {
        $student = Student::findOrFail($id);

        $this->validate($request, [
            'first_name' => 'required',
            'last_name' => 'required',
            'age' => 'required|numeric',
            'email' => 'required|email',
        ]);

        $input = $request->all();

        $student->fill($input)->save();

        return redirect()->route('students.index');
    }

    /**
     * Remove the specified resource from storage.
     *
     * @param  int  $id
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

    public function destroy($id)
    {
        $student = Student::findOrFail($id);

        $student->delete();
        
        return redirect()->route('students.index');
    }

From Laravel 8, all models are now located in the App\Models directory in the App directory as in previous versions, so you need to update your import statement to be

App\Models\Student; instead of App\Student;

In Laravel 8, all models now are located in App/Models so use

use App\Models\Student;
