1. HOW TO ACCESS YOUR ACCOUNT

GET STARTED by logging in to your account here: https://institute.rouxbe.com/login. Please do not log in at rouxbe.com, or you won't be able to access all your Admin features.

2. HOW TO SET UP A CLASS

First, click your name at the top right of your Rouxbe dashboard and select Admin.

In the Admin area, you will see your active classes listed under the Classes tab. If you are the first teacher at your school, you will not have a class yet. To set up a new class, click Add a Class. Then, input your class title (such as "7th Period — Advanced Culinary Skills") in the Class Name box and click Submit.

Once you have created your class, you can register students for access.

3. ENROLLING STUDENTS INTO A CLASS

Each class you create will have a unique Share Link that will enroll your students in that class.

To enroll your students, just click on a class name to go to that class enrollment page.

Then, Click "Add Students."

Next, click the clipboard icon to copy the Share Link for that class.  

Next, paste the link in your preferred method of communication (i.e., email, intranet, Google classroom, learning management systems).

This is a direct link to the student registration page and contains the secure access code to your class. New students will be prompted to create their accounts from there by entering their first and last name, email address and a password.

If a student with a current Rouxbe account clicks on the link, they will automatically be placed in the class.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Important note: As a teacher, do not try to test the Share link by clicking on it, this is for registering students only. If you click on it, you will see an error message, which is a function of the system to prevent teachers from being registered in a class as a student.

4. HOW TO INVITE ANOTHER INSTRUCTOR TO JOIN

To grant access to an additional instructor at your school, click Admin at the top of your Rouxbe dashboard. Then, go to the Utilities tab and fill out the Add a Teacher form.

This will create an account for the teacher and send them an email with instructions to set their password. Upon creating a password the teacher will be redirected into the school account and have access to administrative features (Only registered teachers can invite another teacher into their school's account).

5. HOW TO MANAGE YOUR CLASS CURRICULUM

From your admin interface Classes tab, click on a class name, and then select Class Settings at the upper right of the class page.

From the settings page, click the Content Gallery button. There you will see a list of all courses and lessons that are available.

The modules you select will be loaded automatically to each student's dashboard. You can add new courses or lessons and Save Curriculum at any time.
