Can I administer a quiz to remote students? Can ZipGrade be used paperless?

To Enable the Student Portal:

1. Login to https://www.zipgrade.com from your desktop browser
2. On the 'My Account' screen, find the panel named 'Student Portal'
3. If the portal is not enabled, press the button labeled 'Enable Student Portal'

To Find and Distribute Student Access Codes:

Each student will need to know their Student ID number and their Student Access Code.  These values should only be given to that student and not shared across students.  You will need to use whatever method you have for communication with students to distribute these codes just once to each student.

When the 'Student Portal' is enabled, the Student Access Codes and Student ID numbers will be shown on the 'Students' tab on the website.

You may download a CSV file containing these values using the 'Export Students as CSV' button
