This article contains the following information:

Sections Overview

Before students or teachers can be associated with their math and/or English section, an EdReady Administrator needs to create the master list of sections for users in your ISD. 

You can use whatever naming convention is appropriate for your ISD, but we suggest naming these so that they are descriptive. Remember that your students will see all sections across the ISD so you should include the school name/ abbreviation. A common format is: “School - Semester - Teacher - Class”, ex: “AHS - Fall 26 - Jones- 2nd Period”

 

Creating Sections manually

;

1. Login to EdReady

2. Click the Manage Account button from your EdReady dashboard to access the administrative pages in EdReady.

3. You will land on the Groups tab: click the Edit icon (btnEdit.png) or the View icon () for your ISD. (You may see either icon, depending on your account. If you have permission to edit, you will be able to, regardless of which icon you see).

4. Click on the Categories tab to see all available categories, then click the Edit icon (btnEdit.png) for the category where you want to add values. The available options are:

  • College Prep Section: Math
  • College Prep Section: English 
  • Test Prep Section: Math
  • Test Prep Section: English
    (never update Cohort, Graduation Year, or Inactivity Reason)

Note: you will initially be taken to the General Information tab for this Category: we have already set up your categories with the recommended settings and suggest that you do not make any edits to the settings on this tab.

5. Click on the Values tab

6. Click on the Create value button to add a category value:

7. A pop-up window will appear: enter the name of one section and click the Save button

IMPORTANT: Category values may not contain special characters - commas, slashes, and colons are not accepted. Dashes, underscores, and spaces are all fine.

Editing Sections

Once sections have been created, their label can be edited, and they can be deleted if they are no longer needed. Note: if you have an existing section value tied to admin and/or student accounts, that assignment will be removed if you delete the value from your group's master list of values.

Navigate to your ISD's Category Values list for the Category you want to edit (steps #1-6 above)

1. Click the Edit icon (btnEdit.png) for the item you want to update

2. A pop-up window will appear: edit the Name for this category Value and click the Save button.

3. Click the Cancel button to close the pop-up window.

To delete a Value:

1. Click the Delete icon (btnDelete.png) for the item you want to delete

2. A pop-up window will appear: click Confirm to complete the deletion
