share-in-my-contentOk, so you’ve created an item, an rweb or rcast etc and you want to know how to get the students in your class to see it when they log in to realsmart.

Well, you can do this in a number of places…

  • In ‘My Content’, click on an item and select ‘share’,
  • Or when you are editing an item, or viewing it, by selecting the ‘shares’ menu and selecting ‘add new share’

You will then go to the ‘share an item’ screen.

share-with-a-classHere, just select ‘Share this item’, then click on ‘group(s)’.

You will see a list of all your groups and classes in your school. You can either scroll through this list, or start typing the name of your group in the ‘search for groups’ box.

Select your group, then click on ‘Add >>’

The only other thing you need to do now is decide which ‘Activity’ to share your item under.

Click on ‘Activity’ and either choose an activity or subject name, or type in a new one.

Finally, click on ‘Finished! create my share!’.

Now, when your students log in, and when you look in your dock in ‘My Learning’, the item will be shared under the activity name you have chosen. You may have to ‘refresh’ your dock screen by clicking on the refresh icon.
