How to create a Substitute View

To allow substitute teachers to view your plans online, you can create a Substitute View. You have full control over the classes, lesson sections, and lesson timeframe that substitutes can view in your plans. To create a Substitute View:
  1. Click the User Setting icon in top-right menu.


  2. Select the Sharing Options button.


  3. Select the View - Substitutes option in menu bar.


  4. Enter a View Key. The view key creates a unique identifier for each view, and can be anything you want.


  5. Select the View Items to include in the view. View items can include events, and specific lesson sections.


  6. Select the View Classes to include in the view. Note that it is fine to select multiple classes at one time, as you will receive a unique link for each individual class, which you can share with different substitutes as needed.


  7. Set a View Range for the view. The view range allows you to control how far in the past, and how far in the future, you allow lessons to be viewed.


  8. Select a Default Layout for the view. This sets the layout substitutes will see initially, but they will have the ability to switch the layout as needed.


  9. If desired, add View Information to the view. View information can include more general information to guide substitutes, such as your regular classroom routines, pull out schedules, etc.


  10. Click the Save button to save your changes.


  11. Click the Download or Email to me icon in top-right menu to receive your view links. This will include a single link for all classes, as well as an individual link for each class, and can be shared with substitutes as needed. Note: If you make changes to the viewing permissions, you will need to save your changes and generate a new link.
