ACELLUS TUTORIAL
Parent Interface Guide
The Acellus Parent Interface allows you to to monitor your student’s progress and access account details.
This tutorial will cover the following topics:
Signing into the Parent Interface
Start by installing the Acellus app. This app can be found by either searching for “Acellus” in your device’s App Store or by visiting the Acellus App Installation page.
On the App Installation page, you can select your device type and then click the ‘Download App’ button.
This will redirect you to your device’s app store, where you can proceed to install the Acellus application.
After the app is installed click the ‘Parent/Teacher Sign In’ button, located at the bottom of the screen.
Next you will be guided to set up your GoldKey account for secure authentication. Acellus utilizes ‘GoldKey Secure Sign In’ to protect access to your student’s records and data.
A GoldKey security pop-up window should appear. You will want to select the “Create a GoldKey on this device” option unless you were issued a physical USB Security Token.
Next, enter your email address and choose a new PIN.
The PIN you choose will serve as your password/PIN for future logins and must be at least six characters/digits long.
NOTE: You must enter the same email address that was used to give you ‘Parent Access’ to your student’s account. If you are unsure, you can check your inbox for the “Invitation to Monitor” message that was automatically sent to this email address when you were added to your student’s account.
If you are new to GoldKey, once you click on ‘Set Up User’, you will see a message stating that a GoldKey account could not be found for your email address. In this case, you’ll be guided to set up a GoldKey account. Simply provide your name, email address, and phone number for verification.
NOTE: When entering your phone number, be sure to use a cell phone number as this number will be used for verification purposes.
After clicking ‘Create Account’, you’ll be prompted to confirm your phone number and select a verification method.
After verifying your account, re-open the Acellus app and click the ‘Parent/Teacher Sign In’ button. The GoldKey security pop-up will appear with your email address already filled in and a prompt to ‘Enter PIN’. After entering the PIN you created, you should see a screen similar to the one shown below.
Monitoring Your Student’s Progress in Acellus
On the Dashboard, you can see the student(s) you are set up to monitor in Acellus. Clicking on a student allows you to view their work in Acellus and access their account information.
Each “Course Tile” displays the projected completion date, daily goal progress, course progress and the overall grade in the course.
Clicking on a course tile will bring up the “Course Progress Page”. From here you will be able to view every assignment the student has completed.
Clicking on a problem set displays the answers the student submitted.
Clicking on a video step plays the lesson that was presented to the student.
Back on the “Report Card”, you will see a pie chart showing the amount of time your student has spent working on each course as well as the time they have spent on Learning Activities.
To view the “Time Spent this Week” report, click the ‘More’ button.
Time Spent Report
Below the “Time Spent” pie chart, you will also see a “Work Completed this Week” bar graph.
The blue horizontal line indicates the weekly goal across all courses combined.
Vertical lines appear blue on days when the goal is met and orange on days when it is not achieved.
Hovering over a vertical bar will show a breakdown of all completed steps within each course where work has been done.
