For the most part, students and teachers interacting in MySciLife have a similar experience, but teachers have a special set of powerful tools to go along with their extra responsibilities. Most of these items are in the Teacher Tools menu. Teachers can access the Teacher Tools from anywhere within MySciLife. If you are signed in as a teacher, you should see an extra menu item (green tools icon) to the right of the My Stuff (backpack) menu.
If you click on the “+ Teacher Tools,” the drawer will slide out—offering access to the following items:
- Activity Feed
- Manage Students
- Manage Communities
- Badges
- Contact Support
