Entering classes manually

If you do not use one of the LMS systems that DataClassroom supports, you will want to manually enter your classes into DataClassroom. Follow the next three steps to quickly create a class!

1. Create a Class

From your account dashboard, find the  Create  button below the 'Your classes' box on the right side of your screen.

2. Choose to 'Enter members manually'

In the pop-up window you will find several spaces to enter information. Start by giving your class a name. Choose a simple password like 'password' or the class name and period to start. Then enter your students' email addresses in the 'New members' space. You can add an entire class roster at once by copying your student email addresses from any spreadsheet and pasting in the entire list. It is not necessary to add students one at a time. 

3. Create your class!

The final step is to click the  Create  button in the lower right corner of the pop-up window. 

Your new class will appear in the the 'Your classes' box at the right side of your dashboard screen as shown here. 

Class admins and co-teachers

To add a co-teacher, first add them as a member. Once you have some members in your class, you can make one or more of them "admins" who will also be able to manage class members, assign datasets to the class, etc.
