Introduction

Admin Tools allows you to organise the training structure within TELL ME MORE e-Learning solutions by

managing:

§ Tutor accounts

(creation, modification and removal)

A ‘Tutor’ is a teacher, training course leader or the organiser of a language group (a group of students all learning the

same language). The Tutor can track students’ progress and communicate with them using Tutor Tools.

§ language groups

(creation, modification and removal)

A ‘language group’ is a group of students with the same ability level learning the same language with the same Tutor.

This facilitates the Tutor’s consultation of the student tracking, as well as the sending of options files and individual

Learning Paths. To know more about this, refer to the Tutor Tools manual.

§ student groups

(creation, modification and removal)

A ‘student group’ groups together students irrespective of the target language. This enables administrative management

of the groups and production of Summary Reports (indicating student progress) for the person responsible for the

training course.

§ student accounts

(creation, copying, import, export, modification and removal)
