Add Your Classes and Students to UTIPS PDF Print E-mail

We have added all of your classes and current student lists to UTIPS, but you as a teacher need to complete the process in your individual UTIPS account. I'll give the instructions below, but I've made a video screencast of the necessary steps to use as well. Here's what they need to do:

  1. Login to your Teacher Page on the SEDC UTIPS Server.
  2. Hover your mouse over the 'Profile' menu, and click on 'Edit' below.
  3. From the 'Teacher' drop-down, select your name from the list (it should have your teacher ID number in parentheses after it).
  4. Change the Switch/Release/Merge button option to 'Merge', and click the 'Update' button below.
  5. You may/will get a message asking if you want to go ahead with the irreversible merge. Click OK.
 
To check to see that the process was successful, hover your mouse over the 'Reports' UTIPS menu, and click on 'Manage Students'. The '2011-YS' option should be selected in the 'Term' drop-down by default. If it isn't, select 2011-YS from that 'Term' drop-down'.  You should now see all of your classes available to you from the 'Classes' drop-down, and each class should have your current students listed beneath.
 
There are a couple of things to consider changing or issues to know about. First, now that you have a current and complete list, you may want to force students to use the detailed login when taking tests (the Detailed Login makes students select the district/school/teacher and their name from drop-down lists instead of just entering their first and last name manually). 
 
Follow these steps to change this setting:
  1. Hover your mouse over the 'Profile' UTIPS menu, then click on 'My Page'. (if you get a message here about the page editor, just click OK)
  2. From the 'Test Login Form:' option drop-down, select 'DETAILED only' option
  3. Click the 'Update' button below.
 
The other issue to be aware of is that although these student lists were taken from your current SIS class rosters, UTIPS does not synchronize these lists. If you have a new student enter your class, you will need to enter them manually into your class lists in UTIPS. 
 
Here's how to manually add additional/new students:
  1. In UTIPS, hover your mouse over the 'Reports' menu, then click 'Manage Students'.
  2. Select the correct class from the 'Class' drop-down menu. (Note: You may need to select the current year from the 'Term' drop-down to the right if your class list is empty)
  3. At the bottom of the window, click the blue 'Add Student' icon with the green plus.
  4. Enter the student's First and Last name in the proper fields.
  5. If you use Scantron forms with printed UTIPS tests, enter in a unique 'External Id' for the student. If you do not use printed or Scantron tests, you can leave this field blank.
  6. Click the 'Add' button to put this student in this class list.
