Introduction
Administrators can create and add new educators in Inspera Originality via the Add Units menu. Educators can be added individually by entering the details manually or in bulk by uploading an Excel file containing the required educator data.
1. Add Educators Manually
Navigate to Add Units > Educators > Manual User Registration
To add a new educator manually, administrators are required to provide the necessary information and then click the Confirm button to complete the process.
The required information for each educator includes:
- Full Name
- Institution
- Department
- Unique Identifier
2. Add Educators in Bulk
Navigate to Add Units > Subjects > Bulk User Registration
To add multiple new educators in bulk, administrators must upload a single Excel file containing the necessary information for all educators. A downloadable template for the Excel file is available in the user interface to simplify the process.
The required information for each educator includes:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Unique Identifier
- Subject ID
Once the Excel file is uploaded, the administrator must select the corresponding institution and department for the new educators. Lastly, they can review and manage all new educator entries for possible issues before finalizing the bulk registration.
2.1 Correct Excel File Population
Before proceeding with the bulk upload of educators, it is essential to confirm whether the Subject Bulk Upload has already been completed, as this determines whether subjects can be assigned to educators during the bulk upload process.
If the Educator Bulk Upload occurs before the Subject Bulk Upload, ensure to leave the Course Code column in the provided Excel template file empty.
If the Educator Bulk Upload occurs after the Subject Bulk Upload, subjects can be assigned to educators directly during the creation process in one of two ways.
Via Excel File
Populate the Course Code column in the provided template with the appropriate Subject IDs for each educator. You can assign multiple subjects to a single educator by separating the Subject IDs with commas.
Via the interface after upload
Alternatively, subjects can be assigned to educators later in the process using the interface available in the Data Management & Registration phase.
