Creating a class is key to getting started on Albert. Classes allow you to enroll students, assign work, and view data reports.
How to create a class:
Click the Create New dropdown in the top left corner of the Home page.
Select New Class.
Enter a name for your class under Class Name.
Select your students' grade levels under Grade Levels.
Choose your school under School Association. If you are not associated with a school, learn how to update your account information.
Choose Licensed or Unlicensed under Class License Status.
Licensed classes give students access to all Albert content, including question banks, and each student uses one license seat.
Unlicensed classes are limited to Adaptive Subjects and use no seats.
Click Create class.
Find your new class within the class selection dropdown within the lefthand menu. You can start inviting students to join it.
How to change a class to Licensed or Unlicensed:
You can change a class's license status any time after you create it. Licensed classes give students access to all Albert content, including question banks, and each enrolled student uses one license seat. Unlicensed classes are limited to Adaptive Subjects and use no seats, so they work well for students your school's license does not cover.
Select the class you'd like to edit from the class dropdown within the menu on the left side of your Home tab.
Click the Settings tab.
Choose Licensed or Unlicensed under Class License Status.
Click Save.
Note: You need to be an approved teacher at a school with an active license to set a class to Licensed. You cannot assign question banks or other licensed content to an unlicensed class, so switch the class to Licensed first. Switching a class to Licensed adds every enrolled student to your school's seat count. If your license is full, email hello@albert.io and we can help.
Helpful Tips:
