There are two ways to join a class in ChitterChatter: an email invitation from your instructor, or a class code. Let's start with the invitation.
The email names your class and your instructor. Select Create Your Account.
Your email is already shown at the top. Check your name, create a password, and type it again to confirm. Agree to the terms, then select Create Account.
You're all set. Select Go to Dashboard. The first time you sign in, Perry the Pear says hello. You can step through the welcome, or close it for now. Perry stays in the corner if you need help later.
Your class is already here. Its assignments appear on your dashboard, and the class itself is under Classes, in the menu on the left.
Now, the second way: a class code. On the Classes page, select Enter class code. Type the code your instructor shared, then select Request to join.
Your request goes to your instructor. The class appears here once they approve it, so check back later.
Once it's approved, it shows up right here, next to your other classes.
Open a class to see what's coming up. Assignments lists your work and due dates. People shows your instructor and classmates. Your practice and feedback stay private, between you and your instructor.
Class missing? Check three things. Are you signed in with the email your instructor used? Is the code right? Has your instructor approved your request? Still stuck? Ask your instructor.
That's it. You're ready to start practicing.
