Teacher Dashboard

Managing Substitute Teachers

You can add and remove substitute teachers if allowed by your administrator. A substitute teacher has the same access to your Teacher Dashboard as you do, except that they cannot import or schedule classes.

Substitute teachers must be validated by your Blocksi administrator or a delegate before they can access the Teacher Dashboard. Your administrator can turn this option off, in which case no validation is needed.

Adding a Substitute Teacher

You can add up to three substitute teachers.

Important

Substitute teachers cannot be added while a class is in session.

To add a substitute teacher:

  1. Click SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS. The Substitute Teachers window opens.

    Substitute Teachers Window

  2. Type the substitute teacher's email address in the text box.

  3. Type a date on which the substitute's access to the Teacher Dashboard ends. This is an optional field. If you leave it empty, the substitute has access for an unlimited timeframe.

  4. Type a password that the substitute will use to sign in to the dashboard and confirm it in the text box to the right.

  5. Click Send Invite. Blocksi sends an invite to the email address you entered in step 3.

Note

Substitute teachers must be validated by either the Admin or the Delegate.

After the admin or delegate validates the substitute, the window changes to reflect the validation and a Remove link is added to the right of the validation status, as shown below.
