A playlist is a customized list of activities that you can create and assign to students for extra practice or intervention. Administrators and Teachers can edit any playlist that they created. You can edit the playlist name, add or delete activities from a playlist, add and remove students from a playlist, reorder activities in the playlist (which changes the order that students receive the activities), or delete the entire playlist. You can also duplicate a playlist if you want the students to repeat the activities from the original playlist for additional practice.
To edit a playlist:
- Log in to Imagine Language & Literacy.
-
Select My Playlists from the Activity Explorer drop-down menu in the upper navigation bar.
- Click the name of the playlist that you want to edit.
- To edit the playlist name:
A. Click the pencil icon next to the name of the playlist.
B. Enter the new name for the playlist, then click Save Changes.
C. You'll receive a confirmation at the top of your screen that the name was successfully changed. - To add or remove students from a playlist, follow the instructions in this article, starting with step 4.
- To add activities to a playlist, follow the instructions in this article, starting with step 5 of the Activity Explorer tab.
- To reorder activities in a playlist, drag and drop the activities using the Reorder button (
). Students receive the activities in the order in which they are listed.
Caution
You can't reorder the activities in a playlist if students are already assigned to it. The Locked icon appears in the Activities section if you are not permitted to reorder the activities. However, if none of the students have started the playlist yet, a workaround is to remove all the students from the playlist, make your edits, and then reassign the students to the playlist.
- To delete an activity from a playlist, click the trash can icon to the right of the activity you wish to delete.
