Please Note
-
This guide is for goreact.com users only. If your course is held in an LMS (Canvas, Blackboard, etc.) you won't need an invitation and will immediately have access to your GoReact assignments in your LMS platform.
-
Invites do not expire; however, courses do expire. If a user tries to join a course with their invite after the course has expired, they will not be added to that course.
-
Beginning December 2022, some non-educational institutions will have different terminology used in their GoReact experience. The terms Owner/Instructor and Participant/Presenter are interchangeable.
Inviting Users
To invite users to your course, you have two options:
Both options will work for student participants. If you are inviting an Admin, Instructor, or Reviewer to your course then you will need to use individual invites.
Group Join link
The easiest way to invite student presenters to your course is to use a Group Join Link. To find this link:
- Select the "Users" tab and click the "Invite Users" button.
- Copy the Group Join Link on the left.
You can then provide this link to your students to allow each student to register for your course.
Important
Each Group Join Link is unique and is good only for the course/section that you copied the link from. If you have multiple courses/sections, you will need to copy the link for each one separately.
If you need to invalidate an existing link, you can generate a new one for your course by clicking the refresh link button.
Afterward, the old link can no longer be used.
Individual invitations
To invite students with an email, or to invite Admins, Instructors, or Reviewers, you need to send individual invitations.
To send individual invitations,
- Select the "Users" tab and click the "Invite Users" button.
- Enter one or more email addresses (separated by a comma or semicolon).
- Select the Role (permission level) that all of these users should have.
- Click "Send Invitations."
Each user will receive an email with a personalized link to register for your course with the indicated Role. Users with existing accounts will automatically be added to the course. Users without an existing account will be prompted to create one and will then be added to the course.
