Enrollment Questions
If your classes aren't showing or you think you might be enrolled in the wrong class, contact your local teacher or administrator for assistance. Your school is in charge of your enrollments.
Course Progress
If you are blocked on a scored activity and need to take it again or be able to move past it, ask your teacher to reset the activity or permit progress. Only your teacher can adjust how you move through the course.
My teacher unlocked my activity but it is still locked.
Ask your teacher to consider these points:
1. Regardless of Proctor settings, when due dates are used, Test and Exam activities cannot be accessed by students until 3 days prior to the due date.
2. When Auto-Proctor is enabled, proctored computer-scored assessments that are in-progress across multiple sessions will need to be unlocked for each session.
Answer Reveal
When students can't access answers for Study Guides and Check ups, it's likely that "Enable Answer Reveal" has been disabled at the organization level. This is something only a school administrator or site coordinator can change.
How to Submit Your Work
Some activities - like quizzes and tests - are computer-scored and completed online in the course window. Other activities - like Studies and Practices have worksheets to print or to download and complete on your device. Ask your teachers how they would like you to submit your work. They may ask you to print and submit in person or you may need to scan or upload your work and submit it online using the Messages feature on My Dashboard.
Some Work Is Not Submitted
Direct instruction activities like Studies often include interactive elements asking you to answer questions or type in a field right on the page. These instructional objects are formative and zero-stakes and they aren't saved. They are designed purely as opportunities to check your understanding. Take your time with these - they will help you remember the material and be prepared for the next activity.
