1. Adding Students in EbD-BUZZ

2. There are three ways that students can be added to EbD-BUZZ:
Before you can administer pre-assessments, your students must first be added as new users in EbD-BUZZ and then enrolled in your course copy.
There are three ways that students can be added to EbD-BUZZ:
EbD Teachers can add students individually.
EbD Lead Teachers can add students by uploading properly formatted .csv roster files, if they are already familiar with this process.
Teachers, Administrators, Supervisors, etc. can send properly formatted .csv roster files to EbD Tech Support, and we will upload and enroll students for you (typically a 5-7 day turnaround). *RECOMMENDED METHOD*

3. 1. EbD Teachers can add students individually.
*Even if you choose to upload rosters or ask EbD Tech Support to do so, you’ll likely want to know how to add individual students in case you get a late enrollee or a transfer into your course.
1. Log in to iteea.org, and click on the “EbD-BUZZ” button.
If you have any trouble using single sign-in, tech support and they will provide instructions for troubleshooting your issue.

4. 2. Select the teacher app if given the option of teacher, student, or admin.
In some cases, EbD teachers will have the option of logging in as something other than a teacher. If you are serving in an administrative role, you might have the admin option. If you attended EbD professional development over the summer, you might still see a student option. All EbD teachers will soon be enrolled as students in an EbD-BUZZ Training and Resources course, and you’ll need to switch to the student app to access that course.

5. 3. Once you’re in the teacher app, select the course in which you would like to enroll students.

6. 4. At the bottom of the course copy image, click on the “People” icon.
You’ll see that there are no student enrollments.

7. Then “Manage Enrollments”
5. In the blue navigation bar at the top of your screen, click on the “Tools” icon.

8. 6. Click “Create a New User” and enter your student’s information.
The username should be all lowercase, using this convention: firstname.lastname.
We suggest using a standard password convention like the word “password” or the student’s school ID number so it’s easy to remember.
(*No need for external ID.)
Click “Create.”
Click “Create a New User” and then enter your student’s information.

In the “Add Enrollments” pane, be sure that “student” is selected as the role, and click “Enroll.” 1 2

10. Now when you view your roster using the “People” icon, you’ll see the newly enrolled student listed.

11. 2. EbD Lead Teachers can add students by uploading rosters.
*Contact your district supervisor to determine who has been designated your EbD Lead Teacher.
Click your profile pic and switch to the admin app. In the course menu on the left side of your screen, click on the “Users” icon.
Then select “Import.”
The second option is that EbD Lead Teachers can add students by uploading rosters.
READ AFTER TITLE AND ITALICS: Just as we saw before, there are 2 main steps involved in getting students up and running in a course. First the students must be created as users. Then they must be enrolled in a course in the role of student.

12. In the “Import Users” pane that appears, choose the correct roster that you wish to upload.

13. Top image: screenshot of the roster template teachers will complete.
In order to create users by uploading a roster, you’ll first need a correctly formatted .csv file. A template was sent to you alongside this video, and it can also be obtained by ing Teachers can complete the spreadsheet and send it to the EbD Lead Teacher.
Let’s take a look at the features of this .csv file. You see columns for first name, last name, username, and password.
First note that the roster template does NOT contain a column for the course ID number. We chose to leave it off because we were concerned teachers might enter a course number not associated with EbD-BUZZ, perhaps a course number generated by the school district.
You’ll need to simply add a column, label it Course ID, and fill in the teacher’s course ID number.
To find the correct number, use the dropdown menu in the top left corner of your screen to select the correct school, and click on the “Courses” icon to view the list of courses and associated IDs.
Please note that you will NOT see a list of courses until you first select a school.
*After you add the Course ID column, remember to save the file. Double check that it is saved as a .csv file rather than as an excel file.

Roster uploads will be handled as quickly as possible. Expect completion within 5-7 business days, but please be aware that during mid- to late August it may take a little longer.
