Quick Access
Jump to:
Visit our EDU Overview article for a detailed introduction on how EDU Management works and member roles. Or visit our Managing EDU Classes article for more about modifying Classes.
Members in your EDU School are organized by Classes. Only the School's Owner can create or delete a Class list. Your subscription may limit your maximum allowed users, otherwise Classes can contain up to 5000 members and Owners may create a maximum of 200 Classes.
Owner or Teachers can invite or delete other members as well as change members' user roles.
All users must create their own NaturalReader account by registering with an email address.
Users don't need to have an existing NaturalReader account when you send them an invitation. If they are not already registered, they will be guided through the process during the invitation process.
When they accept your invitation, they will be given the option of either registering or logging in to proceed.
Invite with Link
The quickest and simplest way to add students to your member list is by creating an invitation link.
Anyone with access to the link can join your EDU plan. You can optionally restrict access to specific email domains so that only users with approved email addresses can join.
You must also select an access expiry date when creating the link. On the selected date, all users who joined through that invitation link will automatically be removed from your EDU plan. This makes it easier to manage student access for school years, semesters, or other temporary enrollments.
You can generate a new invite link at any time. When a new link is generated, the previous link will no longer work.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
Select Add Member, then choose Invite with Link.
Select an access expiration date. Users who join using this link will be automatically removed on the date you choose.
Select the class group that new users will be added to when they join.
(Optional) Add one or more approved email domains. Only users with email addresses that match the specified domain(s) will be able to join using the link. Leave this field blank if you do not want to restrict access by domain.
Select Generate Invite Link.
Copy and share the link with the users you want to add.
Anyone with access to the link can join your EDU plan unless domain restrictions have been configured, so consider carefully how you distribute the link.
You can return to Add Member > Invite with Link at any time to:
• View or copy the current invite link
• Review the current link settings
• Generate a new invite link
If you need to change the expiration date, class assignment, or approved email domains, you must generate a new invite link. Generating a new link immediately disables the previous link and replaces it with a new one.
Invite a User by Email
Send an email invite to one user or one user at a time.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
If you have multiple class groups, select the class you want the user to join from the Member List. Invited users will be added to the class that is currently selected.
Select Add Member, then choose Invite with Email Address.
Enter the user’s email address. Do not use capital letters.
Use the drop-down menu to assign the user’s role as Student (basic user) or Teacher (admin user).
Select Add to send the invitation email.
Invited users do not need to already have a NaturalReader account. When they open the invitation email, they will be prompted to sign in or create an account before joining your member list.
Invite Multiple Users by Email
Sending invitations to multiple users at once can be done in batches of maximum 20 users at a time only.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
If you have multiple class groups, select the class you want the user to join from the Member List. Invited users will be added to the class that is currently selected.
Select Add Member, then choose Invite with Email Address.
Select Add Multiple Members
Enter up to 20 email addresses, with one email address per line. Do not use capital letters.
Use the drop-down menu to assign the user’s role as Student (basic user) or Teacher (admin user).
Select Add to send the invitation emails.
Invited users do not need to already have a NaturalReader account. When they open the invitation email, they will be prompted to sign in or create an account before joining your EDU plan.
Adding Existing Users to Another Class
Users can belong to more than one class group at a time. Use the Existing tab to add users who are already members of your EDU plan to an additional class group.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
From the Member List, select the class you want to add the user or users to.
Select Existing.
Select the checkbox next to each user you want to add to the selected class group.
Select Add to finish.
The Existing menu shows users in the currently selected class group, along with their current role and class group memberships.
Modifying User Roles
By default, users invited through a join link or users invited by sending a batch invite email are assigned a Student user role. Owners or Teachers can change a user's role at any time from the EDU Management settings.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
Locate the user in the Member List.
On the user’s row, select Options (three dots).
Select Set as Teacher or Set as Student
Removing Users
Manually remove a user from your Member List. Users can be invited back at any time if needed.
Note: Users who joined through an invite link will be removed automatically on the access expiration date selected when the link was created.
Go to https://www.naturalreaders.com/edu/ or open Account > EDU Management.
Locate the user in the Member List.
On the user’s row, select Options (three dots).
Select Delete Member.
Select Delete to confirm.
Removed users can still sign in to their NaturalReader account, but they will no longer have access to your EDU plan or its benefits.
