In this video, we will show you how
to create a class as an educator.
In order to create a class as an
educator, you must be a portal educator and be signed in to educators.nagwa.com.
First, click on “Classes” in the
toolbar and click “+ New Class”.
Select the Year in which you want
to create the class. We are going to create a class in
“Year 6”. Then, create a class code and a
title for the class. For example, you could use “T6” for
the code and “Transfiguration-6” for the title. The code is used as a quick
identifier for the class; just make sure it is formed of 2 to 25 characters, is
unique, and doesn’t contain any spaces.
Then, you’ll need to assign a
single subject to the class. Here, we are going to choose
“Mathematics”. If you are teaching multiple
subjects, it’s important to note that you will need to create classes for each
subject that you teach.
Finally, if you co-teach the class,
you can add the co-teachers to the class by clicking in the box; if you don’t
co-teach the class, just leave this blank.
Once you’re happy, click “Create a
Class”.
Now, you’ll see a green banner
saying “The class was created successfully.”, and you’ll see your new class in the
list of all classes. If an error occurs, a message will
appear explaining the problem. If this happens, follow the
guidance and click “Create a Class” again.
Now, we recommend adding some
students to the class. Click the three vertical dots on
the top right of the new class tile and then click “Add Students”. Click in the box next to “Students”
and select the students that you would like to add. Note that you need to add the
students individually, and if you need to create more student accounts, contact your
portal admin.
To add a course to a class, head
back to the classes page and click the three vertical dots on the class tile
followed by “Add Courses”. Then, choose the course or courses
by clicking in the box next to “Courses” and then click “Save”.
