Whether you are looking to set up textbook lists for the purchasing of prescribed textbooks or you want to share your own created resources with specific classes, student groups, or groups of staff members, you will need to create a group in Engage.


Once a user is added to a group, they will be able to purchase their prescribed textbooks or get access to all of the group’s resources in their Snapplify Reader app. It's as simple as that!


Creating a new group

To create a new group in Engage:

  1. After logging in to Engage, navigate to the settings section by clicking the cog icon in the top right-hand corner of your screen.

  2. On the left-hand side of your screen, navigate to 'Groups'.
  3. On the 'Groups' page, click the 'New Group' button.
  4. On the next page, give your new group a name and description. Decide if you want to make your group joinable or not. Then click ‘Save’ to create it.

Once your group has been created, you will find it listed on the 'Groups' page. Click the name of your group to populate it with resources and users.


Adding a user to a group

To add a user to a group:
