Adding Students to an Lt Course

Adding a Student

To add a student to your Lt course, follow these steps:

  1. Click the "Add Student" Button:
    • Navigate to the People tab in your course, then click the Add Student button.
  2. Enter the Student's Details:
    • Fill in the required details, such as the student’s name and email address.
  3. Send Course Invitation (Optional):
    • Use the "Send Course Invite" toggle to automatically send an invitation email to the student after creation.
    • If you prefer to send the invitation later, leave the toggle off. You can send the invite manually at any time using the overflow menu (three vertical dots).

Tips: Verify the student’s email address is accurate to prevent invitation delivery issues.

  • For efficiency, consider using the bulk import feature with a CSV file if you are adding multiple students.

  1. Remove a Single Student:

Note: Removing a student will unenroll them from your course, but it does not delete their account from the Lt instance. To fully delete a student account, refer to the instance administration guide.

Importing Students Using LMS

Before using LMS, ask your IT team to integrate Lt with your LMS via the LTI standard. Learn more about LMS integration.

Note: To grant students access to your course content via LMS, they need to be invited or access Lt through an LMS deeplink. Once linked, courses appear on their Lt homepage.
