lightbulb Tip
Both
Caseload and
All document list pages contain many documents. These list pages are most often used with the
filter and actions buttons at the top to perform
bulk actions or
bulk print.
- The "My Students" list contains students for whom at least one document is starred (and therefore is on your caseload).
- If you unstar all documents for a student, the student will be removed from your My Students list.
- This list provides a quick way to navigate between students and documents relevant to you at any given time.
Secure, built-in chat allows you to discuss upcoming documents, due dates and meetings with colleagues.
