This help document shows you how to create a new class and assign students and courses to that class in the Curriculum Engine.
Create a New Class
To create a new class, go to the Users menu at the top right of the screen and select the Classes option to open a list of current classes.
Click the Add New Class button at the top right.
The Class Details window will open. Enter the information for your class:
- Class Name: Enter the name of your class. **NOTE** The class name must be unique and cannot match any existing classes in the system.
- Subject: This field will default automatically to Mathematics.
- Grade: Select the grade for this class from the drop-down listing.
- Teacher: This field will automatically default to your teacher name.
When you're finished entering the class information, click the Save button on the bottom right.
You will be prompted that the class has been saved:
Once you save the class, you will now have access to adding students and assigning courses to the class. These options are located below the Class Details section.
Add Students
If you do not add students when creating the class, you will be able to add them at a later date. (See Teacher Admin | Assigning students to a class that has already been created.)
If you want to add students when you are creating the class, click the Add Students button under the Students in the Class section below Class Details.
A window will open with a listing of available students. Check the box next to any students that you want to add to the course, and then click the Add to Class button.
You will be prompted with confirmation that the students have now been added to the class.
Assign Course
If you do not assign a course when creating the class, you will be able to add one at a later date. (See Teacher Admin | Assigning a course to a class that has already been created.)
If you want to add course materials when you are creating the class, click the Add Course button under the Courses Assigned to this Class section below Class Details.
A window will open with a listing of available courses. Check the box next to the course that you want to add to the class.
**Note** You will only be able to add one course to a class in this step. You can add additional courses later.
See Class Admin | Specifying course details when assigning a course to a class for additional information on filling out the course details. Once you complete those fields and save the course, it will be added to the class.
