Sessions | Educator’s Manual

Updated on May 15, 2023

Using the daily sessions, you can record various data and perform specific actions related to a subject delivery in a specific timetable period. Create a new session, assign a group and a subject, and add information like which chapters you are teaching, the bibliography used, files, digital material, etc. You can also take numerous actions such as daily evaluation, tasks assignment, questionnaires, and absences record. That way, you can have an overall picture of each of your sessions.

To go to Sessions, follow the path from the menu: Dashboard>Sessions
