Before inviting students, you need to create an Albert class. If you have not yet created a class, visit this article.
Inviting students to Albert allows you to create assignments and track student data with Albert's automatic grading tools.
To begin, navigate to the Classes tab and click the Invite Students button for the desired class.
On Albert, there are four ways to enroll your students:
Class enrollment code
Import Google Classroom
Email invitations
Import from LMS
Option 1 - Class enrollment code
You can view your unique class enrollment code by selecting Display class code on your Classes tab. You'll need to share that code with your students so they can enroll in your class.
Instruct students to complete the following steps:
Create an account, preferably using their school emails, if they don't already have one. If they have an account, they should log in at Albert.io.
Direct students to click on their Classes tab at the top of the page and click Join a Class.
Once they've successfully joined your class, they will see a green box that says "Success!". You can confirm that the student has successfully joined your classroom by viewing the Enrolled students on your People sub-tab.
You can regenerate a classroom code by clicking the Generate a new code label. After selecting this label, only the newly generated code will work for students (your old classroom enrollment code will no longer work).
Option 2 - Import Google Classroom
If you use Google Classroom, you can use Google Classroom sync to import your roster and enroll your students.
Option 3 - Email invitations
This method sends your students an email invite to join your class. Students can then either log in and accept the invite directly on Albert or click the link in the email they receive. If students aren't receiving Albert emails, you may need to connect with your admin to add Albert to your school's allow-list.
Click the Invite by email button.
A popup will appear. You can manually type in student emails, copy and paste student emails from a spreadsheet, or upload a CSV with student emails. When finished, click Send invitations.
Direct your students to follow the account set-up instructions in the email.
Option 4 - Import from LMS
You can import your LMS roster if your school uses a compatible Learning Management System, such as Canvas or Schoology. If you are unsure whether your school has set up an integration with your LMS and Albert, contact your administrator.
