Virtual Learning Resources
ClassLink is the portal to most learning applications. A few helpful things to know:
- Students using a school issued chromebook will be directed to the portal upon login.
- If using a personal device, go to launchpad.classlink.com/hcde
- If it doesn’t have the /hcde at the end, your log in won’t work.
- STUDENTS click sign in with Google.
- TEACHERS enter Username and Password.
From ClassLink, students may want to start at their LMS (Learning Management System). There will be a link on their ClassLink page.
- For Grades K – 2, this is ClassDojo.
- For Grades 3 – 8, this is Canvas.
Troubleshooting common issues:
- Be sure the student is logged in with their HCDE google account. If the parent email is being used, some things may not work correctly.
- If something isn’t working, try a different browser. Many of the sites we are using this year work well in Chrome.
- Refresh the page, sometimes that helps.
- Clearing the cookies in the browser may help authentication issues.
- When using Zoom or other video meeting software, close all browser windows that are not being used. Having multiple tabs and applications open may cause connectivity issues or a lag in the connection.
