//**This section is to begin setting up students into your roster so that they can use the same account for all classes.**//
__**Class Roster Instructions**__


 * Sign into Quia at http://www.quia.com/web
 * Click "Roster" under "Classes"
 * Type the last name or student ID of each student.
 * As you type in the students' names and ID numbers, Quia will search your organizations master student list for matches and auto-fill the remaining information.
 * Once you are done, you can view and/or change your students' passwords by clicking on the "P" next to their usernames.

__**How do students log in?**__
 * Sign into Quia at http://www.quia.com/web/studentZoneBegin.html
 * Username for all students is as follows: first name + last name + 871 (ex: bethhampton871) - attached spreadsheet has all student’s usernames
 * Password for all students is their network password – I deleted this column from the spreadsheet because not all student’s handed in an acceptable user policy.
 * When students log in, they will see “Welcome and their name”. It will list all classes where teachers have enrolled them in.
