You can locate the section in one of the three following locations:
- Manage Course Section Page (Admin Only)
2. Course Section Page (Admin Only)
3. Instructor’s Email Confirmation
Once the section code is verified, check errors that the student may be getting on the page. If the student is already registered for the course section they will not be able to register twice.
If you have arrived on the confirmation page and selected confirm, but the student did not get an email confirmation, please check with your admin. They can view the class student enrollment list and students profile to check the student’s email address.
Also, if your students are paying with enrollment and they are having issues on the payment page, call Customer Care to complete the order.
If you have completed all above and the student is still unable to register, please call Customer Care at 1-800-533-8095 and they will be happy to assist.

The student will get an email with a link prompting them to reset their password on the password reset page.
If they do not receive an email have the admin check the email address of the student on the student profile. Then the admin can reset their password by clicking on the button located in near the top.

At the moment, there is no way to download or print teacher tips, besides copying and pasting them into a document.
Sometimes you are in a pop up and the continue button is hidden, below the fold.
This is a bug we are working and trying to resolve. In the meantime, try to move your screen smaller or larger.
Each lesson preloads when you enter it, if you leave for awhile and come back make sure you refresh you page. Sometimes you can complete a couple questions and then when you finish the lesson your browser has timed out.
If you get “Try Again” pop-up message when you clicked the correct answer should refresh your browser and resubmit your answer. If “Try Again” occurs again, move on and come back to this question later. If “Try Again” happens again try clearing your browser history and see if that fixes it.
Also, check your browser extensions. One of them may be affecting the course. For more information on how to do this, got to browser extensions page.
Otherwise, contact Customer Care at 800-533-8095. They will want to know which question “Try Again” is occurring, your browser and OS version. To learn more about how to get this info go here.
Check the Wi-Fi connection. If it is good then see if anyone else is using the Wi-Fi. If not, try connecting to your cellular data. Turn on your Bluetooth on your phone and allow your iPad, tablet or computer to connect.
Otherwise, you can just use your phone for the singing activities.
Not all pages have teacher tips. If you are not seeing any teacher tips throughout the course, check to make sure you are logged in as an instructor and you are viewing the correct tab.

Our courses are available on devices with internet/web connection. This includes mobile, tablet/iPad, desktop, and laptop computers.
The number icons are called Module Numbering, and within every course there are variations of modules, lessons and activities. Modules are like chapters that contain lessons and the lessons contain activities.
Below is an example side menu of Creating Justice, which has 6 modules and are numbered 1-6.
If we open up module 1, in Creating Justice, we will find that module 1 has 6 lessons, which will be numbered with module 1’s number shown in front of the lesson’s number.
Shown below, module 1, lesson 1, number icon is listed as 1.1.
Now, if you open up lesson 1, in Creating Justice, you will find it has 8 activities, and module 1’s and lesson 1’s numbering are shown in front of each activity’s number.
In the example below, you will see the number icon 1.1.4, which means module 1, lesson 1, activity 4.
If you open activity 4, in Creating Justice, and you will see numbered pages listed below the activity. These are numbered pages do not contain module numbering, as shown below.
Note: Every course is structured differently, while Creating Justice has 6 modules with many lessons and activities, Understanding Racism has 1 module with many lessons and activities.
