Why are some students listed with nicknames?

Modified on Fri, 23 Oct at 6:33 PM

Reports show students who played while signed in by their full name, with their nickname in brackets. Students who played without signing in appear under the name they typed, and their results aren't linked to their account or shown in Class progress.

In group game reports, the common mistakes list uses nicknames. You can switch names on or off with Show names.

Names are saved when the game is played, so changing a student's name later doesn't change earlier reports.

To avoid this, ask students to sign in before they play. If a student's name has turned into an animal name, see Why does my student's name turn into an animal name?.
