Enrolling students, co-teachers and yourself into Markbook groups

Introduction


Markbook groups are used in myAMES to help teachers manage their classes without having to sort through hundreds of students. In order to see your students in the Gradebook and participants page both you and your students will need to be part of the same Markbook group. 

Students and teachers will be enrolled in Markbook groups as part of the bulk enrollment at the start of the term. Throughout the term, teachers may need to enroll new students, other teachers, or even themselves if class groups change.

Adding users to Markbook groups

Navigating to the Groups page

  • Click the Admin cog in the top right-hand corner of your course
  • Click > Users to expand the options 
  • Click Enrolled users

Locating your Markbook group

  • Scroll down and find your Markbook group on the list
  • Click on the group name to select.
  • Click Add/remove users


Adding a user to the group

  • Search for students or teachers by name or strata number using the Potential members search bar in the bottom right.
  • Click on the name of the teacher or student you wish to add to the group.
  • Click Add
  • Click Return to Groups

The student or teacher will now be enrolled in your markbook group.

💡 TIP: You can use this method to add students to learning and assessment groups, however, it is quicker and easier to do so from the participant's page. Once a student is enrolled in your mark book group you will be able to view them on the participant's page.
