User Management

Teachers who have been given school management capabilities for at least one school also have the ability to create and delete user accounts. This is not always necessary. For example, if the teacher's account is used to create all the science fair applications for students then no additional accounts need be created. Likewise, if students are expected to create their own accounts then this faciility is not needed either.

The typical scenario for using this facility is where a teacher will create the user accounts for each student and provide them with the user name and password. The students then log in using their account to create their own science fair application.

Note, the email address associated with an account created using this faciliity will be that of the teacher. The student may change the email address but if they do then the teacher will no longer see the account in the account list and the teacher will not be able to change the student's account password. On the other hand, the student can now request a new password using their newly changed email address.

The teacher can perform the following functions from the User Management page:
