Role of Student

Role of Student

A student account is like your own special place online! It's made just for students to access different parts, like the library, assessments, and homework. Inside these parts, you can do lots of things, like write notes, mark important parts, save pages, work with friends, take tests, see how you did, and get to all the stuff your teacher wants you to read and do.

  • If you're not part of a school, you can still read books and do activities on the website using the Individual user role. All you have to do is sign up with a special code and join a class made by a teacher.
  • Individual teachers can create classes, add students, and assign them things to read and
    do. When you're on the website, you'll be known as an Individual Student. Even if you're not in a class, you can still use a code to get access to stuff.

Note: If you use a special code to join a class made by a teacher, your role changes from an Individual user to an Individual student.
