Getting started with Moiki EDU

Here is how to get started with Moiki EDU, from your first sign-in to your first session with a class.

Creating your account

An account is created from the Sign up screen, and from there only. The Log in screen is for coming back: if you arrive there with a Google account Moiki does not know yet, it will not quietly create one for you, it sends you to sign-up.

There is nothing bureaucratic behind this. Moiki needs to know who you are before it opens a space, and that is exactly the question sign-up asks.

On your first sign-in

Sign-up therefore starts with that question. Moiki asks who you are:

• Teacher: prepare your classes and your workshops.
• Manager: buy a subscription for your establishment and invite your team.
• Student: join a class with a teacher’s link or code.

On your first sign-in, you say who you are.

Once that is settled, Moiki asks who you will be welcoming: pupils whose accounts you create, or students who sign up themselves. See Pupils or students: how they join your space. A short welcome message then opens your space.

Your first steps

From the dashboard, the usual sequence goes like this:

1. Create a class and add your students. See Managing your classes and students.
2. Hand out the access codes so your students can reach Moiki. See Your students’ access codes.
3. Choose an activity: a story to read, to write, or to write together. See Choose your activity.
4. Launch a session of that workshop with your class. See Launch and track a session.

What your account gives you

Every school year, the free account offers one reading project and one writing project with a class. See The free project.

Tip

To handle the editor with nothing at stake, open Tutorials from the left-hand column: a sandbox to explore at your own pace.
