Moodle Learning Content Site - codeninjas.robokind.com

Instructions

TLDR;

Login to: codeninjas.robokind.com
Create a Single User (Sensei)
Bulk Upload Ninjas
1. Create Roster Spreadsheet
2. Roster/Upload Ninjas

Go to codeninjas.robokind.com or learn.robokind.com and using your assigned Username and Password, login.

Step 2: Create a Single User (Sensei or Ninja)

From your home screen go to the Dashboard and select the Users tab. Finally click Create user.

Use the form on the next page to input details about the user.

Since the software requires an email yet Ninjas are not expected to have a valid e-mail. You will need to create an email scheme that you can use to create dummy emails for each Ninja that are unique.

It is highly recommended that the domain of the dummy email is the same for all students in your franchise.

Use the Advanced and Assign Licenses drop downs to configure the user as a Sensei or Ninja

Sensei Config

Make the following selections as shown below:

Role: User
Educator: Yes
Select a License: Sensei License
Course: Space Station Challenge

Ninja Config

Make the following selections as shown below:

Role: User
Educator: No
Select a License: Ninja License
Course: Space Station Challenge

Be cautious when assigning a Ninja License as the assignment cannot be undone and will subtract from your paid total. Please contact RoboKind Support to unassign a Ninja License.

Click the Submit button to create the user.

Step 2: Create Roster Spreadsheet

To quickly create a number of users you can use the bulk importer.

It is recommended that Ninjas and Senseis are bulk rostered separately as licenses can be assigned to the entire roster sheet simultaneously.

Download the Roster Template and following the instructions below create your student roster sheet.

CSV Roster Template

Roster Sheet Creation

File formats for upload users file

The upload users file has fields separated by a comma (or other delimiter) ONLY - no space. The first line contains the valid field names. The rest of the lines (records) contain information about each user.

Tip: Avoid special characters in field information like quotes or other commas. Test a file with only one record before a large upload.

Tip: You can use a spread sheet program to create the file with the required columns and fields. Then save the file as "CSV (comma delimited)". These files can be opened with simple text editors (eg, Notepad++) for verification.

Required fields

These are the required user identification fields:

username,firstname,lastname,email

Validity checks are performed for:

username can only contain alphabetical lowercase letters , numbers, hypen '-', underscore '_', period '.', or at-sign '@'
email is in the form: name@example.com

Passwords

The "password" field is optional if the 'New user password' setting on the upload screen is set to "Create password if needed and send via email" but is required if the setting is "Field required in file".

If included, values should meet the requirements for the site's Password policy.

To force password change for a particular user, set the password field to changeme. If omitted, a password will be generated for each user (during the next Cron job) and welcome e-mails sent out. The text for the welcome e-mail is in the language settings in Site administration > Language > Language customisation with a String identifier of 'newusernewpasswordtext'.
