Sharing/Importing Lessons - Non-Teachers

The ability to Share provides the user a way to share lesson plans and import lesson plans from other teachers.

Share Lessons

To share a new lesson plan:

1. Click New from the menu bar.

   

2. Then, while creating lesson plans , check the box Share Lesson. Teachers can share only with a specified group of teachers by selecting them in the Share Lesson with Teacher(s). Leaving a teacher unchecked, blocks them from seeing the shared lesson. If Share Lesson with Teacher(s) is left blank, then all teachers can see the lesson plan.
3. Once the rest of the lesson plan has been completed, click save and the lesson will be available for teachers in the school. If lesson plans need to be shared with other schools in your district, then an Administrator can use the Set Defaults button to allow this using the Share icon.
   • NOTE: It is suggested that the lesson be approved by administrators prior to sharing.

To share an existing lesson plan:

1. Find a lesson within the Lesson Book to share.
2. Left click on the lesson to view menu options.

   

3. Click Edit.
4. Check Share Lesson.
5. Click Save.
6. The lesson plan is now available to all teachers in the school.

Importing Lessons

This is only available if the other teachers have checked Share Lesson in their Lesson Book. Also, teachers can share only with a specified group of teachers by selecting them in the Share Lesson with Teacher(s). Leaving a teacher unchecked, blocks them from seeing the shared lesson. If Share Lesson with Teacher(s) is left blank, then all teachers can see the lesson plan.

To import lessons from other teachers within the school:

1. Click the menu item Share.

   

2. You can find specific lessons using the Start and End Date Range or the Search field.
3. If sharing from other schools in your district is allowed, choose that additional school at the top of the Lesson Book Share window.
4. Check the lesson(s) that you want to import and then select Import.
5. Choose which of your section(s) you want to add the lesson to by clicking the field under Section. After choosing a section, click OK. For non-master schedule teachers, select the class and teacher the lesson plan applies to.
6. Click OK on the Lessons to Import box. Answer the question about if you want to continue. If OK is the reply, then you will see the Import Successful box.
7. Imported lessons will have a beige color, as opposed to the normal pale blue color.
