Tips:
Note 1: On a Mac, Internet Explorer
may not function correctly on log-ons. Use a late
version of Safari or Firefox instead.
Note 2: If you had an account,
you can get a reminder sent to the e-mail listed
in your account.
Note 3: If your school has changed,
first add your new school then remove
your old school.
If you forgot your account information, avoid
creating a duplicate account. This causes problems
in data collection.
Note 4: Your account should have your
LAUSD e-mail. A lot of time is lost at after school
survey completion sessions because accounts had
old, unused, or forgotten non-LAUSD e-mails.
The
four digit number should be your last 4 SSN digits.

Removing
Accounts from a School List
Note: If you know the new school which an person
on your list has transfer, ADD the new school
to the person's school lsite THEn you can remove
that persons. This makes it wasier to for the
teacher and the EdTech administrator at the other
school to assist. When you are "viewing all"
your will see a remove from school checkbox on
the far right side. Check the ones you want removed
> then, go to the bottom of the page to make
the change to the database.
Edit
Staff E-mails
Edit staff e-mails to be LAUSD accounts only.
Send reminders for logging on through e-mail.
LAUSD e-mails are Helpful. Non-LAUSD e-mails cause
problems. When you view all the staff, you will
see a button for editing e-mails. Often, account
e-mails are not lausd.k12.ca.us. It would be helpful
to have the LAUSD account listed because non-LAUSD
are often no longer used by some staff members.
Notification reminders become inefficient when
sent to non-LAUSD e-mails and staff meetings to
complete the survey get bogged down in helping
individual log-in concerns.
E-Mail
log-on Reminders
Reminders can be sent out individually (within
individual account edit) or by entire group (under
view all).
New
Accounts
New teachers can create their own accounts from
the EdTechProfile homepage:
http://www.edtechprofile.org.
Transferred
Teachers
If transferred teachers have accounts at other
schools or aren't sure, give your Local District
ITAF their names and the ITAF will look for them
and transfer them to your school if an account
exists.
IE
as a Browser on a PC
When using the "back" key in EdTechProfile,
a warning page appears. Continue with the "back"key
and you usually get to prior pages.
Merge
Duplicate Accounts
The Local District ITAF (and maybe you) can merge
multiple accounts:
WARNING: don’t merge accounts that are persons
with same names in different school Districts
in CA or LAUSD.
TIP: SOME persons have duplicate accounts but
have initials + no initials, hyphens + no hyphens,
and caps + no caps.
Admin page > System Management > User accounts
> type in name or partial
names > if multiple names appear see "Merge
Accounts" on LEFT column > Merge Account
- Search by Name > FIRST LAST
> choose MAIN ACCOUNT and INCLUDE IN MERGE
> merge
Main account is usually the latest completed survey.
Check e-mails after account is merged.
