The Student Picture can be edited within the Student Profile, as well, by clicking on the
button at the top of the Student Profile Screen (see Image 2) and either uploading or dragging and dropping an image file from your device (Supported file formats/sizes are displayed in the tooltip).
New Student Icon:
Instead of clicking the pencil icon to the right of each Student’s name, you will now see a student
icon in its place.
To edit an individual Student profile, click on the
icon to the right of the name of the student whose profile you'd like to edit (see Image 1).
This always displays, except when the View Students setting is disabled.
Upload Students Tool:
For teachers who are not working with districts that use ESGI’s importing feature, if you would like to upload a class roster file rather than adding students individually, you can do so via the Upload Students Tool!
Please follow these step-by-step instructions to learn how to access and use the Upload Students tool:
1. Click on the name of the class which you would like to upload students to.
2. Open the Add a student pop-up by clicking on the + button at the top right of the Student Dropdown (see Image 1).
3. Click the Add Students via File option. This will open the Add Students pop-out menu, on the right side of the screen (see Image 3).
Note: To learn how to Add a Student/ Class/ Group, please visit our Adding Students Support Page.
4. Click on Upload a file to upload your class roster in either CSV or XLS format.
5. Once your class roster file has finished uploading, you will receive the File Upload is Complete pop up. Click Got It to close the pop up.
Note: If there are any errors detected in your uploaded file, a separate popup will appear indicating that there are students who need attention. To view and edit these students, click the View Students button, correct any conflicting records, and click Upload.
6. Your successfully uploaded students will now appear under the class name specified in step 1.
