What are Administrative Tasks?

What are Administrative Tasks?

Overview

Most schools and school districts prefer to assign specific persons to perform certain tasks related to Classworks, rather than add to the tasks teachers are usually required to perform. Typically, those with Classworks administrative responsibilities are called “District Manager” or “Site Manager.”


User Permissions

Administrative tasks are assigned based on a user's permissions. What a District or Site Manager sees (and can do) when accessing the Administration tab, depends on his or her user permissions. Any task that affects more than one school is performed by those with district-level permissions. A Site Manager at a school can only perform tasks related to his/her school and its students.


Administrative Sub-Tabs


The Administration Tab has multiple sub tabs, each with its specific functionality. 

Remember: You can only see those tabs that you have permission to view.
