Student Access
On this page we have an introduction to the site from a student's perspective. I provide an overview of the value of student access to the site.
For details about how to allow access to students, create assignments and use the grade book / task manager:
Student Access: Creating Groups
Student Access: Setting Assignments / Tasks
Student Access: Graded Assignments
Since I created this website I have provided all my students with access to the site. We use it in every lesson. They log on to the same pages as me, I project the page we are looking at and use the presentations embedded in the pages. About 75% of the site is open to students. Most of the pages have been created with "Direct Access to Students" but those with answers to exercises and tasks are filtered to allow teachers to determine when to release the page to students. You can do this using the student access tool.
Just click the group to which you want to release the answers.
You can also now (new feature) directly set a page as a student task (reading, writing or discussion).
You can also view the page as a student.
My students use the site independently and use it as a revision / review tool too.

Where a page can be made available to students, you will notice a bar in the top left of your screen that reads Student Access tools. When you click on this, your student groups will be visible.
When the page is already visible to students, you will see the green open lock symbol.
When the page is not visible to students, you will see a red locked symbol. To release the page to a student group, click on this red symbol and it will open to a green lock.
