# Manage Classes Directly

Literatu knows if you are not using Google Classroom

## :family\_mmgg: Create your Class Structure in Literatu

You can create Classes and link students directly in Literatu. This can be all pre-set when you establish your Community or you can build out your classes one by one.&#x20;

:point\_right: Every class in Scribo is allocated a unique Class Key. Students use this key to register and join the Class.

### Add a Class

1. Login to Google with your Scribo linked Teacher account
2. Open Google Docs
3. Open the Scribo Add-on\
   Add-ons -> Literatu Scribo -> Scribo

Scribo checks if you are using Google Classroom. If not, click **Add a Class** from the Scribo panel.&#x20;

### Add Students to the Class

### :point\_right: Notice the Class Key&#x20;

The Class Key can be used by students to both register and join a class, or simply join a class. Give this key to students. The key is a 6 (six) character code.

Teachers can Add Students to the Class by completing three fields: the Student's name, email address and default password (which students can change). The email address must be unique.

Teachers can paste a CSV file from Excel to bulk upload a class of students.&#x20;
