Teachers can use the Login As feature, available on the Staff Module's Student Activity page, to open a session as a specific student. This feature supports a variety of distance learning scenarios. For example, teachers can use Login As to grade recordings of student hot timings.
The Story Details report for any student's current story is also available on the Student Activity page, allowing teachers to review a student's recent performance before conducting Pass steps using Login As.
Using the Login As Feature:
To log in as a specific student, use the Login As feature in the Staff Member Module.
- Go to the Read Live home page, and log into the Read Live Staff Module using your own Account ID, User ID, and password.
- From the navigation menu, select Student Activity.
- Find the student for whom you need to log in.
Note that you can see a student's current step in her or his story and see the Story Details report with information about the student's performance. See Reviewing the Story Details Report for the Student's Current Story below. - In the row with the student's name, click the Login button for the student you want to help.
Note that if the student involved is currently logged into Read Live, the Login button is red. If you open a Login As session while a student is logged in, a warning dialog will ask you to confirm that you want to log the student out. It is important to communicate with students in order to prevent confusion during this process. - The application will open a new browser tab in which you are logged in as the selected student.
After logging in as a student, a teacher can use screen sharing software to conduct Pass activities over the internet. A student recording, either saved in Read Live or sent to the teacher by some other means, can also be graded as a remote hot timing.
Reviewing the Story Details Report for the Student's Current Story:
Before clicking the Login button to open a Login As session, a teacher can quickly review the student's performance on the current story.
- On the Student Activity page, click the > control to the left of a student's name to open the Applications level for the student. Then click the > control to the left of Read Naturally Live to see available reports in that application.
- Click the Story Details button for the student.
The Story Details report opens. The Last Login Date in the story data section displays the last time the student worked on the current story. - Review the student's progress as needed.
- Click the Back button to return to the Student Activity page.
