Link Classes to Programs at Log In

Note: Your classes must be created before you can manage programs. Depending on how your district manages roster data, classes are created by district/school administrators or by teachers. To view your class rosters and (if allowed) add classes, see Manage Class Rosters.

 

HMH Ed™ requires that teachers specify the programs available for each class before resources can be assigned. As a teacher, when you log in to Ed and before associating programs to classes, you see all the programs your school is entitled to. However, to ensure that your students only see the programs you teach, you must choose the programs that you want associated with your class(es). Linking HMH programs to classes can be done using prompts at login (as detailed in this topic) or using the Program Settings page (detailed in the Manage Programs for Classes topic).

 

You will be prompted to link your classes to HMH programs at login if you have one or more classes that are not linked to any HMH programs.

To link your classes to programs when you log in:

 

1.    Log in to Ed. After you have completed your Teacher Profile and/or confirmed your suggested Teacher Success Pathways—or you have done those in a previous session, a Ready to... dialog box appears.

 

2.    Depending on the number of unlinked classes, proceed as follows:

      If you have nine or more unlinked classes, a Ready to Link Your Classes to HMH Programs dialog box appears.

 

You must use the Program Settings page to link HMH programs to your classes.

 

i.      Click Ok to close this dialog box. Your Dashboard appears.

 

ii.     In the top menu bar, click the My Classes tab, and then click Choose Programs for each class to link it to HMH programs.

 

iii.   See Manage Programs for Classes for complete details for linking your classes.

 

Ready to Link Your Classes dialog box for 9 or more classes

      If you have fewer than nine unlinked classes, you see a Ready to Set Up Your Classes dialog box listing the classes that are not yet linked to any HMH programs.

Ready to Set Up Your Classes dialog box

 

    Click Let’s Go to begin selecting programs for your unlinked classes.

 

A Choose your Programs dialog box appears for your first unlinked class listing all the available HMH programs purchased by your district. Individual programs are displayed in boxes grouped by subject. You can use this dialog box to link your classes.

 

Continue with step 3.

 

Choose your Programs dialog box for Class 1

Note: If you prefer to bypass the set-up prompts and continue working in Ed, click Remind Me Later.

Be aware though—until all your classes have been linked to HMH programs or you indicate that classes are not to be linked to HMH programs, the prompts will continue to appear when you log in.

 

3.    Click Show Programs for a subject to view the available list of programs. The dialog box expands for the selected subject and shows all the HMH programs available to you.

 

Note: If you do not want to link any HMH programs to a class, click the check box at the top of the dialog box to indicate that and then click Save & Next Class or Save & Finish. This ensures that you are not prompted in future logins that this is an unlinked class.

This option may be applicable for schedules that include all school periods, such as lunch or recess.

If necessary, you can change the class program selections at any time on the Program Settings page; for details, see Manage Programs for Classes.

 

4.    Click the check box corresponding to one or more programs that you want to link to this class, and then click the Save & Next Class button.

If you have additional unlinked classes, the Choose your Programs dialog box appears next class in your list.

 

5.    Repeat steps 3 and 4 for all your classes. When you select programs for the last unlinked class, click the Save & Finish button.

A dialog box appears confirming that all of your classes are set up.

Your Classes Are Set Up confirmation dialog box

   Program list dialog box for selected subject

 

When you return to your Dashboard, you see the programs that you selected in the Discover area, and on your Discover page, you see the selected programs the Program List.

 

When students log in to Ed, they see the programs that you associated with their class in their Program List.

Note: You can change your class program selections at any time on the Program Settings page; for details, see Manage Programs for Classes.
