Adding Users to a Course

How to add Students and Instructors to your course

Written by Madeline Schroeder

If your school has integrated its learning management system (LMS) or student information system (SIS) with Lingco, then your rosters may be synced to Lingco automatically. If you have questions or are unsure of your school's setup, reach out to your IT administrator or us at [email protected].

To add users to your course, click the Roster tab on the course page.

First, click the Roster tab on your course dashboard.

Next, click + Add/Invite to Course.

TIP: You can adjust the Role filter to see students, instructors, or both who are enrolled or invited to your course.

Inviting Students

To learn how to invite students to specific sections of your course, refer to this help article.

A menu will pop up with a few options for inviting students:

  • Share the student course code with your students. When they log into Lingco, they will enter this code on the Join Course page. The image below shows an example code, yours will be different!

  • Enter student emails. Type in one or more student emails (separated by commas). Students will receive email invitations with a link that enrolls them in the course after they log in.

    • If your organization uses email domain restrictions, then a message will share those with you.

  • Share the join-course link. After students register or log in using the link, they will be enrolled in the course.

Inviting Instructors

To invite additional instructors, click the Instructor tab.

The options for inviting instructors are the same, but the instructor code is different from the student code.

Once you're done, click Invite Students (or Invite Instructors) to close the pop-up. You can only invite one type of role at a time, so click + Add/Invite to Course again if you need to invite more users.

Invitation Status

After closing the pop-up, any emails you entered will appear in the roster with a Sent enrollment status. This indicates the user(s) were emailed a course invitation, but they have not accepted it yet.

Once they accept the invitation, they will show up as Enrolled.
