Asking teachers to confirm their email address helps ensure that the account you’re adding truly belongs to them. Teachers confirm their address by clicking a link sent to their email, which helps keep your school secure, allows you to catch any typos in their email address, and ensures teachers receive important email notifications from Showbie to their inbox.
Sending Email Confirmations
To start, admins will need to log into the admin dashboard and head to the Teachers tab. Once there, look to the icon beside each teacher's email address:
A blue check mark signifies that their email is already confirmed.
A yellow exclamation point signifies an awaiting confirmation. Tap the '...' icon on the far right of the column and click Resend Email Confirmation. Once confirmed, you'll see a blue checkmark icon to indicate that their email is indeed confirmed.
