Editing a Teacher Account
Your account page contains a wealth of useful information, including a list of teams your are monitoring, your own competition submissions if you have made any, and links to download certificates for you and your teams. It is also where Harry will post any messages to you, so do check it regularly.
You can also update your account details there, read on to find out how:
Your Account tab looks pretty much like a student account tab, but includes some links to useful info. In general the tabs on this page give individuals access to their achievement badges and provides links to submissions, account details, BOSS ID cards, team info and any messages that Harry has sent, either sitewide or individual. We will use this message system to contact medal candidates at the end of the competition. Most of the account and team management details are the same for teachers as for students and aliumni, so you should check out the how to edit your account page for that information For the additional powers that a teacher account provides, read on!
Teachers can’t win prizes in the competition, but you are allowed to take part and a lot do. You will need to set up a team on the Your Team tab and once you have done that you or your team captain can submit solutions. You will see your submissions, marks and feedback under the Answers & Achievements tab. This is the same as students will see, and you can read more about it at the “Submitting and Getting Feedback” page. Your submissions will be ranked in the Alumni leaderboard to keep the main leaderboard clear for our student competitors.
The Student Teams tab lists all the teams linked to your account, either because you registered them with the bulk registration tool (Invite Teams), or because the team captain has entered the monitoring PIN listed in the “Teams I am monitoring box. See the additional info here.
