How to Reset Individual Core5 Students
Overview
Educators with Teacher and Administrator access to myLexia can reset individual Core5 student accounts.
If you have administrator access to myLexia, you can reset multiple Core5 student accounts. See How to Reset Multiple Core5 Students in myLexia.
Resetting placement permanently deletes all progress and history for the student's account. Lexia recommends that you print or save any necessary reports and certificates before doing so.
There is a Retake Core5 Placement option in myLexia that allows students to retake Auto Placement without completely resetting their progress and data. For more information, see Quick Guide to Core5's Retake Placement Feature.
Applies to: Educators and administrators who have Teacher, School Admin, or District Admin access to myLexia®.
Does not apply to: Educators with read-only access.
Do I need to re-autoplace my Core5 students every year?
You do not need to re-autoplace all students at the beginning of every school year. Core5 uses personalized scaffolding and support to effectively address students’ individual needs, based on their current skill levels.
However, you may choose to re-autoplace all students or a subgroup of students, based on your students’ circumstances and specific needs. If you are considering resetting student accounts at the beginning of the school year, see Core5 Auto Placement Guidance for End/Beginning of Year Planning.
What are some reasons for resetting accounts?
Change program assignment: If you would like to change a student’s reading program assignment, you first need to reset their account, deleting their historic data. For more information on changing a student’s program assignment, see Assign Core5 student to PowerUp.
Compromised account: You may want to reset a student’s account if their data was compromised (e.g., someone other than the student used the account).
How do I reset a Core5 student's account?
If you have teacher-level access to myLexia, you can reset one Core5 student account at a time.
Since resetting a student's account deletes all progress and history, Lexia recommends saving or printing student reports before doing so.
In myLexia, select Manage and select Students.
Use the search fields to find a student by name or username.
Select the Edit Student pencil icon next to a student's name.
In the Edit Student window, select the Reading Program tab.
Select Reset Student and then Save.
What happens after a Core5 student's account is reset?
Reading Program Information Status
In Manage > Students, under the Reading Program Information section, the student’s Status column will display “Not Started.”
Licenses
When a student is reset, their license is automatically released. When the student next logs in to their assigned program after completing Auto Placement, they will be given a license if any are available.
Program Assignment
After a Core5 student is reset, they are automatically assigned to either Core5 or PowerUp based on the Highest Grade Automatically Assigned to Core5 site setting in myLexia. The student will take Auto Placement in their assigned program the next time they log in.
