Overview
In order to join a class in NoRedInk, your teacher will need to provide you either an invite link, class code, username and password, or instructions to log in through Clever. Once you know how you should join your teacher's class, expand the relevant instructions below for more guidance on joining your class.
💡Note: If your teacher did not provide you with instructions for how join their NoRedInk class, be sure to check with them first to make sure you sign up correctly.
My teacher gave me an invite link to join
If your teacher gave you an invite link to join NoRedInk, follow the instructions below. An invite link will look something like this: https://www.noredink.com/join/class-code-5
Invite link instructions
Step 1. Open the link in a web browser
Click on the invite link OR copy and paste the URL address in your browser address bar.
Step 2. Log in if you already have an account OR sign up for a new NoRedInk account
If you're already logged in to a NoRedInk account, you'll automatically join the class. Otherwise, you'll see a welcome page like this one:
- If you've used NoRedInk before, you can log in to your existing account.
- If you don't have an account, go ahead and click "Sign up as a student" to create a new account.
💡 Tip: If you have a Google account, you can choose the "Sign up with Google" option. This will let you "Log in with Google" next time you need to log back in to NoRedInk.
Step 3: Make sure you've joined the right class
If you've logged in to a brand new account, you'll need to finish setting up by choosing your NoRedInk Interests.
Once you finish this step, you can double check that you're in the right class by clicking your name in the top right corner and going to the "My Classes" page. You should see your class name listed.
Step 4: Save your login information
It's important to use the same account throughout the school year to make sure that that all your hard work in NoRedInk remains in one account.
If you signed up with Google, you'll be able to click the "Log in with Google" button to sign in. Otherwise, be sure to remember your username/email address and unique NoRedInk password so you know how to log back in next time!
The next time you log in to NoRedInk, you can do so from www.noredink.com/login.
