I am a computer teacher and looking to create generic accounts for my students to use where I can monitor not only their progress but the actual accounts. These would be generic accounts that I would use year after year. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Hi Michelle,
We highly recommend against generic accounts. Instead each student should have their own account.
Sharing accounts reduces accountability, risks student deleting each others work, and prevents students from continuing their work after class.
Here is the section of our knowledge base that details how to bring student on quickly and link them to your teacher account so you can monitor their activities.

If you have questions after reviewing, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have many students setting up their accounts this week. Unfortunately my invite code is returning an invalid/out of date response. I have generated a couple of codes but each gets the same response. Accounts set up earlier in the week did not have this problem. Fiona
I am officially giving up on trying to do this with my 2nd graders. As valuable of an experience as tinkercad seems to think allowing the students to set up their own account is, I am not willing to sacrifice my sanity trying to get them to type in a password and email. By the time they finally get it and click "create account" it freezes up and requires me to exit out and try again.
