We only recommend adding students manually if students cannot sign up for NoRedInk on their own and if they do not already have a NoRedInk account.
Inputting students names on your "Manage Classes" page creates a brand new NoRedInk account for each student you add.
Students won't need a separate class code since they'll be added directly to your class, but you will need to share each student's username and password with them so that they know how to log in.
To manually add students, follow these steps:
- Go to your "Manage Classes" page at the top of your screen
- Select "My students are unable to sign up for their own accounts, so I need to create accounts for them" at the bottom of the page.
- A window will pop-up and you'll need to enter each student's first name and last name. Select "Add student" when you've added the student's information.
- You can enter multiple students at once before saving. When you are done, select "Done adding."
Be sure to let students know their usernames and passwords. By default, the password will be your class code with the spaces included.
- Students will then be prompted to change it to a more secure password when they first log into their account. Students will need to ensure that their new passwords adhere to our Password Security Requirements.
- Use the option to print out login cards to easily distribute usernames.
