Peabody with Clever

Peabody's Clever roster import is built and read-only, and not switched on yet. Until then, use the spreadsheet import or the class code.

Where it stands

Built, not switched on yet.

If your school uses Clever, here is where things stand. The roster import for it is built and read-only, but it waits until Peabody's connection is finished and switched on. There is no button yet, and we are not promising a date. Until then, use the spreadsheet import or the class code. Once it is switched on, a child will also be able to tap Peabody in the Clever portal.

What to do now

Use the spreadsheet import or the class code today.
Ask your school's IT person whether Clever is how your class lists are kept.
Check back here: this page changes when the connection is switched on.

What Peabody takes

Peabody takes each child's first name and grade, reads them once, keeps them for 30 minutes as a draft for the teacher to check, and then makes the children as a first name plus four numbers. It never takes a last name, an email, a student number or the service's own id (the Clever tile, once switched on, is the one addition: see the Clever page). Read-only access only: Peabody cannot change anything at a school.

Questions

Can my students tap Peabody in Clever today?

Not yet. The tile for children is built and switched off. Once it is on, a child taps Peabody in the Clever portal and lands signed in.

What does Peabody keep so the tile can sign a child in?

Only once the tile is switched on, and only for children made from a Clever roster after that: a keyed hash of the Clever id, not the id itself. A hash is still an identifier, so the tile is off by default. The link is deleted when the child or the class is deleted.

Is there a Clever button on Peabody now?

No. There is no button yet.
