Mobilize Teacher Tool Process

The instructions below are a step-by-step process Mobilize teachers will use to generate accounts for their students during the 2013-2014 school year.

0 Gather Account Info!

To make it through this process you'll need your account info for LAUSD ISIS, as well as your Mobilize account (looks like lausd-00000). If you do not yet have a Mobilize account, you'll need to contact Mobilize Support.

1 Accept the Account Policy

Before you can create classes and student accounts, you'll need to read and accept the extended account policy that comes along with the added responsibility of these account privileges.

  • Log in with your Mobilize account (looks like lausd-00000).
  • Read all items and click “I accept.” to confirm your understanding.
  • Note that it can take up to 15 minutes for your account to be enabled.

2 Download Roster from ISIS

You'll need to download your rosters in CSV (comma-separated value) format from ISIS. Below are detailed instructions (and screenshots) to help!

  • Scroll to the bottom and click “LAUSDMAX Admin/Teacher Login”

  • Log in using your LAUSD credentials.

  • Click the “Reports” tab.

  • In the new window, click “Teacher.”

  • Click “Five/Ten Column Class Worksheet.”

  • Select the period you are creating a class for, CSV as output format, check “Merge Roster.”
  • Click “Generate Report.”
  • The report will either (depending on your browser) download immediately , or you will need to select “save” and choose the location where you'd like to save the report.

3 Upload Roster

Finding your downloaded roster will be slightly different depending on your browser, and computer operating system. You may want to locate this file in your Downloads folder, on your Desktop or other custom location before starting this process (Caution: don't attempt to open or edit the csv file, as you may inadvertently change the format).

  • Scroll to “Create New Class.”
  • Select your class semester, period and subject.
  • Click “create.”

  • Your class list will be updated and the new class will be highlighted, click “Select” next to this class.

  • Under “Upload Roster” click the “Choose file” button and browse to your downloaded class roster (in the example, the file is named RPT_AT0068.CSV)

  • You will see a status message showing that your students have been uploaded.

4 Updating Roster

We understand that the first roster you upload may not be complete (or may contain students who have since dropped from your class). Because of this, we've made it possible for you to very easily make changes to your roster.

  • Repeat step 2 above to downloaded the latest version of your roster from ISIS.
  • Log in with your Mobilize account (looks like lausd-00000).
  • Click “Select” next to the class you'd like to update.
  • Under “Upload Roster” click the “Choose file” button and browse to your downloaded class roster.
  • After your roster uploads, there will be a descriptive status informing you of changes: 1- any new students who have been added (highlighted in green) and 2- any students who were not found in the roster, that you may choose to delete (highlighted in red).

FAQs

  • Q. Can I change a student's password if they've forgotten it?
  • A. Yes! Just find their name in your class list and click “Change Password”.
  • Q. Next to my student's account it lists <changed> under password. What does this mean?
  • A. This means the student's password has been changed from the initial password. You are still able to change it if necessary.
  • Q. Something doesn't seem to be working on this page. Is my browser supported?
  • A. Please refer to the “Mobilize Web” section on our minimum requirements page.
