Create a class

Introduction

GradeChum works best in a classroom setting, where a teacher handles a class with enrolled students and give them activities to test their proficiency in the class subject being handled.

Hence, to kickstart your journey to time-efficient grading of handwritten papers, the very first thing you need to do is create a class.


Steps

Note: You must have already created your GradeChum teacher account before proceeding to these next few steps.

To create a class in GradeChum, follow these instructions:

  1. After logging in to your GradeChum teacher account, you will see this interface. Click the button labeled "+ Create your first class". This shall open the Create class dialog.
  1. Provide a name for your class. If your school has the extra class settings turned on, the dialog also asks for them here: a class type (Regular or Mock board, which cannot be changed later) and the course this class belongs to.
  1. Click the Create class button.

  2. GradeChum confirms with Class created!. Click Go to Class to open your new class.


And that's how you create a class in GradeChum! Next, let's invite our students into the class so they can join in.
