FAQ for teachers

I already have a HELBLING Account from another platform. Do I need to register again?

Students also only need one HELBLING Account. They can use this both in class and for independent practice.

I’ve forgotten my password or username. What can I do?

On the login page, click on ‘Forgot password?’ or ‘Forgot username?’. You will then receive an email containing a link that allows you to create a new password, or a list of usernames associated with your email address.

Students without their own email address should contact their teacher. The teacher can reset the password.

Can I change my email address or username?

Yes. Log in using your existing account details and click on the icon in the top-right-hand corner. Select ‘My account’ and then ‘HELBLING Account’. Here you can manage your personal details (username, email address) as well as your name.

How do my students gain access to the HELBLING e-zone?

There are two ways for your students to gain access to the e-zone:

You create accounts for your students (student list):
In the ‘STUDENT LISTS’ section, you can create accounts for your students. You can then assign these to your courses.
Step-by-step instructions on creating student lists can be found in the ‘Course and student management’ section.

Your students already have a HELBLING Account or register themselves:
If your students already have a HELBLING Account or register themselves, please provide them with your Course ID. This allows students to apply to join your course.
Step-by-step instructions on how to add students to a course can be found in the ‘Course and student management’ section.

My students have lost their login details. What should I do now?

If it is a HELBLING Account that you or your colleagues created using a student list, you can view the login details, change the password or provide the students with their login details.
To do this, select the relevant student list in the ‘STUDENT LISTS’ section, where you can manage your students’ login details.

If your students have registered themselves, they can reset their username or password independently.
To do this, students click on ‘Log in’ on the home page and select the ‘Forgot username?’ or ‘Forgot password?’ option.

Course and student management

What are student lists and how do I create accounts for my students?

Student lists are independent of courses and are used solely for creating and managing student accounts (students’s name, usernames and passwords). Once the accounts have been created, you can add the students to your courses.

To create a student list, click on ‘STUDENT LISTS’ and then on ‘+ Add student list’. Give your student list a name. You can then either add the students individually or import them via a CSV file (please follow the instructions provided).

Under ‘Teachers’, you can share your student list with your colleagues. This means that only one HELBLING Account needs to be created for each student. The student list you have created can then be shared among several colleagues.

How can I share my student list with other teachers?

You can manage and use student lists jointly with other teachers. To do this, share the student list ID with other teachers. You’ll find the student list ID under ‘Teachers’ in the student list.
The other teacher enters the student list ID under ‘STUDENT LISTS’ in the box labelled ‘Request access to a student list’ and sends a request.
Before the student list can be shared, you must accept the join request in the student list under ‘Teachers’.

Under ‘Teachers’, you can view which teachers you are sharing your student list with at any time. If necessary, you can also remove teachers from the student list there.

How do I create a course and add students?

Creating a new course takes just a few simple steps:

Navigate to the ‘COURSES’ section and click on ‘+ Add course‘.
Enter a name for the course, select the subject (optional) and confirm your entries.
Then add your students to the course. There are two ways to do this:
Add students from a student list:
If you have already created student accounts using a student list, or have been given access to a colleague’s student list, you can add individual students or several students from this list to your course.
To do this, open your course, click on the ‘Students’ tab and then on ‘+ Add students from student list’.

ALTERNATIVELY:
Invite students to join the course:
Alternatively, you can invite your students to join your course. To do this, share the course ID with your students. You can also print or share the PDF invitation generated by HELBLING e-zone.
Click on ‘+ Invite students’ to generate the invitation. Using the course ID written in the invitation, your students can apply to join your course.

How can I share my course with other teachers?

You can add other teachers to your course using the ‘Team teaching’ feature. To do this, share the course ID with the teacher you wish to add. You can find this in the course view under ‘Teachers’.
The teacher enters the course ID in the ‘Team teaching’ box at the bottom of the ‘COURSES’ page and sends a join request.
Before the course can be shared, you must accept the join request in the course under ‘Teachers’.
Under ‘Teachers’, you can view at any time which teachers you are sharing your course with. If necessary, you can also remove teachers from the course there.

How do I add materials to a course?

There are two ways to assign materials to a course:

Via ‘MATERIALS’:
In the ‘MATERIALS’ section, you can assign your materials to one or more courses by clicking on ‘Assign to course(s)’. This gives your students access to the parts of the materials intended for them.
In this way, you can assign materials to several courses at the same time.

Directly within the course:
Open the desired course, click on ‘Materials’ and then on ‘+ Add material’.
This allows you to assign multiple materials to a course at the same time.

How do I set assignments with start and submission dates?

Setting homework or test assignments takes just a few simple steps:

Select homework or a test
In the relevant course, select the material from which you wish to set a homework assignment or test.
For most products, ‘Interactive materials’ (such as Cyber Homework) are available for this purpose.
Select the homework assignments or tests you wish to assign to your students and click ‘Assign’.
Select students
Specify who the assignments are intended for. You can assign them to the whole course or to individual students.
Set the completion period
Set the desired start date and deadline. The completion period can also be in the future. Your students can work on the assignments within the selected period.
Then save your selection.
You can adjust your selection at any time, even during the completion period.

In the course settings, you can specify whether your students can view their scores and the solutions after submission.

How can I view my course’s results?

There are several ways to view your course’s learning progress:

Results by assignments:
In the course, under ‘Materials’, select the relevant product. Under ‘Interactive materials’, you’ll find an overview of all assigned, unassigned and completed assignments.
As soon as students’ results are available, you can view them by clicking the ‘Results’ button.

Overall results:
Under ‘Overall results’, you’ll find an overview of the course’s progress across all assignments. The results can be sorted alphabetically.
Click on a student in the results list to view their individual results for all assigned homework assignments or tests.
