All students should have their own login details to ensure that their Discovery Education experience is as tailored as much as possible to their needs and interests.
When the student logs into their acccount, they will be taken to their own student dashboard.
The background colour and avatar can be personalised through their Profile Panel (How can my child personalise their Discovery Education account?)
The programmes that their school has subscribed to are shown in the tiles at the bottom of the screen. These programmes can be accessed by simply selecting the tile for that programme.
The coloured area at the top of the page focuses on assignments that have been set by the student's teacher.
The prominent tiles show upcoming assignments. Tapping on these tiles will open the assignment ready to start.
In the top right-hand corner a summary of assignments can be seen.
To view the assignments in greater detail, click on the See all link, or move to the Assignments page by tapping on the Assignments header at the top of the page.
The Assignments page displays all assignments and the drop-down menus make it easy to sort by date, completion status, teacher or class.
The Explore page is designed to facilitate student-led learning and to allow the student to investigate subjects and topics independently.
Choosing the Search tile will open the Discovery Education Search page where the student can browse through age-appropriate resources and content, or search for specific topics and activities.
Whilst the student can search freely, the visible content will become curated to the child's interests and account history.
The Studio tile will open our Studio tool where the student can create presentations and slideshows which can be shared with their peers or teachers. (How can my students view and work on Studio projects?)
Clicking on the Subjects tile enables the student to browse content sorted by Key Stage and subject.
Whilst browsing or researching, the student can add resources to their Favourites list by clicking on the ellipsis icon to the right of the resource title.
Any resources added to Favourites are quickly accessible by opening the Profile Panel in the top right-hand corner of any page.
Alternatively, the resource can be shared to the student's My Content files using the same ellipsis icon.
Resources saved to My Content can be viewed at any time by opening the main menu on the left-hand side of the screen and selecting My Content
