Even as a Free Teacher or a Paid Teacher user, you can create teams and add other members of your department, school, or district to them.
To do so, start by clicking on the Teams tab in the left-side menu:
Create a New Team
Click the blue "New Team"
In the popup window enter your team's name, your country, state, and city.
Mark the type of team you are creating (school, department, or district)
Click the blue "OK" button at the bottom of the screen
Your new team will populate on the Teams tab
When you create a team you are automatically assigned the "org manager" role, which will allow you team management capabilities.
Org managers:
Can invite or remove other Org Managers
Can invite or remove other teachers
Can edit or delete teams
Can remove themselves from teams
Add Educators and Assign Roles
Mark the checkbox to the left of your team's name
In the menu at the bottom of your screen click "invite members"
Another way is to click the "+" symbol on the far right of the team's name
In the popup window enter the email address of the person you would like to invite to the team, then click the "+ Add" symbol to the right
The team member's email address will appear in a list under "Educators"
Click the dropdown menu to the right of the email address and assign a role: Teacher or Org manager
If needed - to remove an email address from the list, click the X next to it
You can add as many educators as you'd like
Click the blue "Send invite" button at the bottom of the pop up window
An invite will be emailed to the educator, and they will need to accept it to be added to the team officially.
While Org Managers have the ability to remove any team member from the team (including themselves), teachers have the ability to remove themselves from a team.
Remove a Team Member:
Click the down arrow next to the team's name
Check the box next to the team member(s) you would like to remove
Choose "remove" from menu
Tip: If you're an Org Member, prior to removing yourself from a team assign the role to another member.
NOTE: While Free Teacher or Paid Teacher users can create teams, they do not have access to collaboration features. To gain access to collaboration features, teams need to be subscribed to a School & District license. Please see our Pricing page to get a quote for your team!
