Frequently Asked Questions

How do I post on the site?

Create an activity for yourself by setting it to Teachers Only in activity settings.

Can I link directly to a specific post?

Yes! Click the permalink button in the ••• menu attached to any piece of content. You can share that link with anyone who has access to your site.

How are teacher accounts different than student accounts?

Teacher accounts work differently than student accounts in a few key ways:

• Teachers have access to the Tools menu. This allows you to build, run, and assess your simulation.
• Teachers can see and edit all of the content on the site, regardless of its activity's visibility and editing settings.
• Teachers's post don't have a byline unless the teacher's persona has a character name. This enables teachers to post "as the site" or as characters within the game.
• By default, Teachers are members of a special "Staff" team that doesn't appear on the Dossier. You can move yourself to a standard team, or create alternate personas on other teams, if you'd like.
• Teachers names are displayed in full across the site (as opposed to the student display mode, which shows first name, last initial)
