Home pages for educators and students

Updated over a week ago

Amplify now has a single entryway for educators (Educator Home) as well as for students (Student Home) for the new school year.

Educator Home

After logging in, you’ll arrive at Educator Home, where you’ll find a new, streamlined way to access your assessment, reporting, and instructional tools. Educator Home may appear different depending on your institution’s licensed products.

Note: The first time you log in to Amplify, you will land on Educator Home. If you navigate to one of your programs and log out, the next time you log in, you'll be directed to the same program page you logged out from.

Amplify Navigation

The Amplify navigation displays across the top of the page and includes the Home icon, Programs & Apps icon, and My Account icon.

  • Home: click Home to navigate back to Educator Home

  • Programs & Apps: click Programs & Apps to access tools such as mCLASS Groups and mCLASS Assessment Importer, as well as the Amplify PD Library and mCLASS Resources

  • My Account: click your name to access My Account or log out

Programs & Apps

Programs & Apps contains links to your Amplify programs. In the Tools section are links to tools such as mCLASS Groups and mCLASS Assessment Importer. In the Other Resources section, you’ll find the Amplify PD Library, where you can download student materials and access training courses, and the mCLASS Resources, where you can access how-to guides and research materials.

My Account Icon

When you click your name next to the My Account icon in the Amplify navigation, your username, the My Account link, and Logout link display. Click My Account to go to My Account, or click Logout to log out of Amplify.

My Account

When you navigate to My Account, Classes displays. The left menu contains links to Classes, Programs & Licenses, Account Settings, and Help Center.

  • Classes: includes links to your programs, Student Home, and Educator Home, and a list of your classes. Click a class name to view details for that class.

  • Programs & Licenses: displays a list of your licenses, with their current status information

  • Account Settings: you can change your first and last name, enter a nickname, and change your password

  • Help Center: click to go to the Amplify Help Center, where you can find articles about your Amplify products

Welcome Bar

Click the avatar icon to change your avatar characteristics to personalize it. Your students also have this feature on Student Home. Click Student Home to see a preview of what your students see when they log in. (Please note that this preview is only for Student Home. To preview the student assessment platform, you'll need to log in as a student.)

Your Programs

Go to Your Programs to access mCLASS and any other Amplify programs your institution has. Click mCLASS to navigate to the mCLASS platform.

Recommendations

Review the notifications in the Recommendations area to see what’s new in mCLASS.

Amplify chat

Click the chat icon to open the Amplify chat panel. You can send a message to Amplify Customer Care and Support, view your message history, or search for articles about Amplify products.

Student Home

mCLASS students will arrive at Student Home after logging in. From Student Home, your students can complete assigned mCLASS assessments.

Important: Student Home may appear different depending on your students’ grade level and the Amplify products your institution uses.

Note: The first time students log in to Amplify, they land on Student Home. If they navigate to the student assessment platform and log out, the next time they log in, they are directed to the student assessment platform.

K–5 Student Navigation

The Student navigation displays across the top of the page and includes the student's name, the backpack icon and Log out icon.

  • Students click the backpack icon to display important links (depending on licensed products), such as the Student Home link.

  • Students click the Log out icon to log out of Amplify.

K–5 Student Home

When students log in, they complete a daily “vibe check” poll before landing on Student Home. Their poll result displays next to their avatar, along with the To-do and Past Work buttons and today’s date.

Students can click their avatar to edit the characteristics and personalize it. The Avatar builder for K–5 students has a time limit of 2 minutes. After this time has elapsed, students are prompted to save and they are returned to Student Home.

Assignments

The Assignment stream displays current or past assignments. Students click To-do to display the stream of current assignments or Past Work to view completed assignments. Some assignments such as mCLASS Assessment are pinned; they remain in the stream and cannot be marked complete.

To-do

Each assignment is on a card that shows the program, Unit or Lesson information (if relevant), and due date (if one is set). Students click an assignment card to open the assignment, or click the green check to mark the assignment complete.

To navigate to mCLASS student assessment, students click Go on the mCLASS Complete assessments card.

Past Work

These are assignments that the student has marked complete or that have passed the teacher-set due date. If your institution uses mCLASS only, students will not have Past Work.

Grade 6 Amplify Navigation

  • Students click Home to return to Student Home.

  • Students click Programs & Apps to view the Amplify programs their institution is licensed to, as well as links to tools and resources.
