Adding Students by Importing Data

A new feature has been added to allow teachers to add students by importing a file. If students have already been added to a Dazzle class list, additional students cannot be imported into the same class but can be imported into a newly created class.

Acceptable file types are:

• Excel (.xls, .xlsx)
• Comma Separated (.csv)
• Tab Delimited or Plain Text (.txt)
• A file exported from ESGI's Class Totals Report (downloaded as Excel, delete unnecessary rows and columns then Save As)

Column headings could be named:

• First Name (mandatory)
• Last Name (mandatory)
• Student ID (optional)
• Birthday (optional)
• Transportation (optional)
• Bus Number (optional)
• Bus Stop (optional)

1. On the initial login screen, click "Import File":

2. A "Created by Import" tab will display:

3. If additional names or fields need to be added, delete the class and import again with a corrected file.

Warning:  Deleting students will delete all their data, so only delete if you haven’t added data or pictures.
