TA Login Index  

You may optionally allow TA's to log into your gradebook with limited access to enter scores, update homework, and enter roll. They may login only from the computer(s) where you set it up, and you specify which features they can access:

Level 1: Homework & Announcements — Lets TA's update the text posted and upload files, but not make any other changes or see students' grades or ID's.

Level 2: Attendance — Lets TA's enter attendance for the current day, but not see or change attendance on past dates.

Level 3: Scores & Assignments — Lets TA's change and enter new scores and assignments, but not delete assignments or see students' grades.

Level 4: Print & See Grades — Lets TA's print reports, update seating charts, see students' grades, and edit attendance on past dates.

Level 5: Email & Setup — Lets TA's send email, reset student passwords, open your other gradebooks, and have almost the same access you do. The only thing they cannot do is change your password, email address, or TA settings, or access Admin Mode.

To enable TA access:

1. Go to the computer that the TA will use. (If they need access from multiple computers, repeat these steps on each computer.)
2. Log into your account and go to the screen.
3. Select the TA access level and password. (Each computer can have a different access level, but they all use the same password. You can leave the password blank, but that is a security risk.)
4. Logout.

Then your TA can go to the login screen, select the "TA" tab, enter your username, and enter the TA password you chose.

If you want to grant your TA just temporary access, or just temporarily raise their access level for one session only:

1. Go to the TA Login screen.
2. Enter your password, not the TA password.
3. Select the access level and Login.
The temporary access ends when they Logout (or if it's idle for 10 minutes).

Notes:

You and your TA (or multiple TA's) can be logged in at the same time. It's safe for you to enter grades for the same assignments at the same time.

TA access is for teachers only. If you need student aides or parent volunteers in the office to use Admin Mode, they must use a regular staff username and password.

You do not need to pay extra for TA's; they are included with the teacher account.
