How do my students use QR codes to sign in?

Every student on Freckle has a QR code. You can access them by doing the following:

1. Sign in to your teacher account at classroom.freckle.com.
2. Select Roster in the left navigation bar.
3. Use the Jump to Class drop-down list to select one of your classes.
4. On the screen for that class, select Print login cards.
   
   
   
   
5. Your login cards have your student's QR codes. Print them out to use them.

Signing In with a QR Code

1. Go to student.freckle.com and select the QR code button at the bottom.
   
   
2. If you haven't enabled your webcam on your Chromebook or other computer, you'll need to do that first. If you're on an iPad, you won't need to do this step. Instead, you'll be asked to open your camera.
   
   
   
   Each browser looks a little different, but in general, you'll need to select Allow when it appears near the top of the page.
   
   If you're having trouble with your webcam, scroll down to learn how to enable it.

Granting access to the camera:

1. When you visit https://studentmode.classdojo.com, a tooltip should appear in the upper-left of your screen asking to use your camera. Select Allow.

On Firefox
