Adding Students

Teacher students page with roster and student management actions

​
Individual Registration

The Add New Student dialog is a 3-step wizard.
1

Open the Students Tab

From your classroom workspace, open the Students tab and click Add Student.
2

Step 1 — Name

  • First Name (required)
  • Last Name (required)
3

Step 2 — Customize

  • Job (optional): Assign a paid classroom job from your job library
  • Group (Pro feature, optional): Add the student to a group
  • Avatar (optional): Upload an image or pick from the avatar library
4

Step 3 — Goal

  • Goal Amount (optional): A personal savings target shown on the student’s dashboard
5

Save

Click Add Student. The student appears immediately in your roster with their own QR-accessible dashboard.
New students automatically receive the Starting Balance configured on the classroom (if any). Starting balance is set when you create or edit the classroom — not on the per-student form.

​
Bulk Add

For adding entire class rosters quickly:
1

Open Bulk Add

Click Bulk Add in the Students header.
2

Enter Multiple Students

Type names into the quick-add rows. Each row creates one student.
3

Submit

All students are created at once with default settings. Edit individuals later for avatars, jobs, groups, or goals.
Bulk add is fastest for roster setup. You can always edit individual student details later.

​
Student Profile Information

Clicking a student opens their profile with tabs for everything tracked about them:
  • Avatar & Name
  • Current Balance
  • Personal Goal: Optional goal amount with progress bar
  • Quick action buttons for awarding or deducting points
  • Recent activity summary
Students have a unique short nano ID used in their dashboard URL and QR code. You can regenerate or print these from the QR Codes page — see QR Code Login.

​

Use Give Points or Quick Buttons
