Inviting Students
From within your class:
Click People
Click Invite Students
There are two ways to get students started:
1. Class Link Option
This option generates a direct URL link that students can open to set up their accounts and connect with your class.
Click Class Codes at the top of the page - you will see a pre-generated Class Link
Click Copy - this URL link can be emailed to students & parents, or shared on any online platform you use with your class
Note: for districts using Single Sign-on, the Class Link option is disabled - students must be invited either through rostering imports, or using a Class Code.
2. Class Code Option
This option will generate a code that students can type in or copy and paste at spacesedu.com to create their accounts.
Click Class Codes at the top of the page - You will see a pre-generated Class Code
Click Copy - this code can be copied and pasted into a parent newsletter, or posted in a prominent location in your class to help students get started!
3. Google Classroom Option
This option allows you to invite students directly from Google Classroom.
Click Google Classroom at the top of the page
Click Invite via Google Classroom
Regardless of the option you choose, you can share the code or link with your students in whatever way works best for you:
Email the Class Link to all students in your class
Share the Class Code in a classroom presentation
Post the Class Link in your Google Classroom or any LMS
To ensure that only your students can connect with your class, you can use the Reset Link? or Reset Code? options if needed to invalidate the old link or code, and generate a new one. Note: this will not affect any students that have already joined your class.
Don’t forget! Make sure you share the account setup instructions with your students, which can be found in our article, 'How do students create their accounts?'
