1. Contact the Boords team 

Contact the Boords team to get your account set up. Email us at [email protected] or send us a message via live chat. 

2. Create class projects 

To create a new project, select + Create a new project on your Project Dashboard.

Create a project for each class group that you have - for example, Drama Grade 8, Drama Grade 9, Drama Grade 10.

3. Invite students 

Now you can begin inviting your students to join the team. Click your profile image in the bottom left-hand corner and from the menu, select Manage Team.

From the dropdown menu, select Restricted. This means that you’ll be able to invite your students to some projects but not all of them (i.e. students won’t be given access to projects that don’t apply to them).

Enter the student's email address and select Invite.

Repeat the previous step for each class group until all students have been invited.

4. Student accepts invitation 

As soon as the invitation is sent, the student will receive an email to confirm their place on the team. It’s very important to note that students will not be added to the team unless they accept this invitation.

After clicking the link, the student will be prompted to create their own Boords account. They'll need to enter their name, email address and create a password.

5. Assign students to projects  

Locate the project on the Project Dashboard that you'd like the student to have access to. Next to the storyboard's name, select +.

Enable the toggle to allow project access.

Your student will then have access to this particular project and can begin working on storyboards.
