You can add new students to Headrush by sending them an invitation to log in. However, sometimes school firewalls won't allow that invitation email to come through or the email gets caught in a spam filter.
So, how do you as a specialist work around the reality?
Built into Headrush is the ability to circumvent the invite process by having students create their passwords on the fly, or, manually change a participant's password and tell them what you made it, so they can log-in and change it themselves.
This article assumes you've already tried to invite students. If not, check out those instructions first.
Next, you'll need to select the group that includes students who have not received their email invitations to Headrush and click on the gear to the right of the name in the group dropdown on your 'My Students' page:
Once opened, if there are any students you've invited, but have not logged in, you will see a 'Manage Invites' button:
Click on the 'Share Invite Link Myself' button:
Instructions will appear that include a unique link as well as an option to share a QR code image of that link you can provide to students:
Have students go to that link directly or by scanning the 'show a QR code' option. Once there, they can re-enter the information you provided to create their account. Students will then be asked to create a password and viola, they will be logged in Headrush.

Enter a new password, enter it again, and click Save. Now, tell the participant their new password. When they next login, they will be asked to change it. Here's how to do that for a group of students...
