Ways to Collect Students

    • Student List- can be filtered to display specific students (use any filters at the top)
    • Student List- checkboxes next to students name
    • Students on a Roster or a report
    • Anywhere that a student name is displayed
  • Collection by ID “Add by ID”
    • C-a-r list of local IDs- any c-a-r with the local IDs can be used
    • Copy and Paste from any outside document
    • Coming Soon- Add by ID to allow SSIDs in addition to Local ID

Optional way to collect students: Add by ID: when adding to collection there is an Add By ID option. You can copy a list of Local IDs from a CSV/Excel and paste directly into the box. You can also manually type the local ID and enter after each so it creates a list.

3. Batch Mode
Batch Mode allows making changes to a group of students that might be student specific. So rather than a Mass change, you can navigate to the page of the first student and make their individual change. Then move to the next student in your collection. This allows you to make individual changes but without having to navigate for each student.
Activate your collection by either creating a new one or using one that is there
    • Go to the page in the system you want to make changes for the students.
      For example you may change student’s demographics, NSLP, Family Information and so forth. Go to that area for ANY student
    • Open the Collector in the dark grey bar at the bottom of your screen
    •  
    • Click Batch
      Click OK in the box that appears asking if you want to Enable Batch Mode



 At the top of the page a box will appear:
  • Use the dropdown to click on the Students Name you would like to make changes too
  • Make the changes you would like on the student’s page and click SAVE
  • Once you have completed the first student click Next Student
    Continue the process until each students info has been updated
