You can sit in your own class. Your account goes on the roster of the classroom you pick, and the simulator then shows you that class the way it shows it to a student: the assignments arrive, you claim them, the tickets land in My Queue, and your work is recorded and submitted.
Your own seat is free. It does not use one of the student seats on your plan.
Join a class
- Open the teacher dashboard and go to Classrooms.
- Select the classroom.
- In the roster, select Join as a student.
Your row appears on the roster marked You. Open the simulator and the assignments button is in the header, as it is for your students.
If the simulator was already open in another tab, reload it.
What you see
Everything a student in that class sees: open and past assignments, due dates, the claim and submit steps, the tickets in the queue, and the class leaderboard with you on it. Your students do not see you on their leaderboard.
Your row also shows up in each assignment’s progress, so you can work an assignment and then look at what a finished one looks like from the dashboard.
Move to another class
You sit in one class at a time, like a student. To see a different class, either select Join as a student in that classroom, or use the three dots on your own row and choose Move to. The simulator follows the classroom your account is in: its assignments replace the previous class’s.
Leave
Use the three dots on your own row and choose Remove from class, or open the assignments window in the simulator and select the leave icon next to the class name. Nothing about your subscription or your access changes.
What it does not do
It does not make you a student anywhere else. Your seat stays out of the activity export and the API, which list students only.
