Test
• I can’t change my student’s information under the control panel, why not?
Student account can only be managed from your “MyPage” and can only
have limited information associated with them

• Can I give an account to all 100 of my students?


No, teachers are currently limited to 50 student accounts only. These can be
shared if desired. We recommend using one account per period

• Why shouldn’t I give a student my account information?


Students should only use the student account. Your teacher account has
greater capabilities which are not appropriate for students to have. Please
only use student accounts for students and do not share your own personal
account information
