*** NOTE: If your district is using Clever or ClassLink, this article does not apply to you, as rostering is managed through Clever/ClassLink's Secure Sync rostering integration.


In this video tutorial, I walk through how to manage students within Chalk Talk, specifically focusing on moving students between sections, removing them if necessary, and making other key adjustments.

Navigating to Course Management

From the Dashboard, head over to Course Management. This is the main area where you can view and edit any section. Select the section you want to adjust, and you’ll see a list of both teachers and students assigned to that section.


Moving Students Between Sections

If a student is enrolled in the wrong section:

  1. Find their name in the student list.

  2. Select the student.

  3. Click Move, then choose the correct section.

  4. Submit the change.

The student will disappear from the original section and appear in the new one immediately. You can also move multiple students at once by selecting several names before using the Move option.


Removing Students

Sometimes a student needs to be removed entirely—for example, if their email is incorrect or they’re no longer enrolled.

  • Next to the student’s name, click the three dots menu.

  • Select Remove to take them out of the section completely.


Resetting Student Accounts

If a student can log in but is having trouble with access, you can:

  • Click the three dots next to their name.

  • Choose Send reset link or Reset password.

  • Provide them with the reset details so they can log back in.


Wrapping Up

That’s it! Managing students in Chalk Talk is straightforward once you know where to go. With just a few clicks, you can move, remove, or reset accounts to keep your sections organized and up to date.
