Creating a Class

The “Create a Class” function allows you to organize your students, create student teams and view Challenge resources. If you have multiple classes or periods you will create a new class for each one. If you only have one class that you are working through a Challenge with, you will only need to create one class.

4. Select the Challenge that you would like to participate in from the drop down box.

Challenge and Class Codes:

Every IC Challenge has a unique Challenge Code.  When a teacher creates an account registers for a specific challenge, they will be asked for a Challenge Code.  This ties a teacher to a specific challenge.   The Challenge Code is ONLY needed the first time a teacher registers for a challenge.

 Once a teacher creates a class, the platform will generate a Class Code.  This ties students to a specific class.  When a student creates an account, they will asked for the Class Code.  All students in the same class will have the same Class Code.  The Class Code is ONLY needed the first time a student creates an account.

TIPS for setting up classes:

1.  If you teach multiple periods, create one class per period taught and label it clearly.
2. Older students can set up their own accounts with their email and code for that class.
3. It may be easier to create student accounts for your students if they are younger. If so, click the ‘Add Student’ button. We recommend giving students the same generic password so it is easy to remember.
4. If teaching the challenge as a whole class rather than in teams of students, create one student account to be able to submit answers.
