Overview
If a student is using the Image Login method in Hello World CS and fails to log in after three attempts, their account will automatically be locked for one hour to ensure security. As a teacher, you have the ability to unlock their account immediately through your teacher dashboard.
Follow the steps below to unlock a student's account:
Log in to Your Teacher Dashboard
Go to the Hello World CS platform and log in with your teacher credentials.
Navigate to the Gradebook Page
From your dashboard, click on the Gradebook option in the main menu.
Access Section Information
On the Gradebook page, locate the Section Info button and click on it.
Select the Student’s Name
Under the Image Login section, find the Login Unlock dropdown menu.
Click on the dropdown and select the name of the student whose account needs to be unlocked.
Unlock the Account
Confirm your selection and click UNLOCK to unlock the student's account immediately.
Additional Notes
Once unlocked, the student can attempt to log in again without waiting for the one-hour lock period to expire.
If the issue persists, double-check that the student is using the correct login sequence for the Image Login method.
