HowTo edit the student account and password in Microsoft 365
About the student account
Your child’s Junior Coding Club username is basically an email address composed by the first name of your child separated with a dot “.” and the first letter of the last name followed by “@codingclub.cc”.
Example: simon.b@codingclub.cc
It is a fully functional email address which is also the single sign-on (SSO) into the Microsoft Office 365 student account and other education applications.
The (secure) password
Every student starts with a generic password. The students are obliged to change their password as soon as possible with their own creation.
1. Login to the Junior Coding Club
For the login page, click here: https://login.microsoft.com/
Type in the username / email address and you will recognise the Digitaltutor Coding Club welcome screen.
Now fill in the password.
- After a successful login you should see the Microsoft 365 Education dashboard of the Coding Club.
2. Change the password
This is one of the first topics children should learn: The use of passwords and why they are important. We decided to require a strong policy about passwords even if this is a steep learning challenge for the young students. With the help of the Tutor or with the parents, children will be able to construct a secure password on a high standard soon.
Train yourself to remember at least one password that you never, repeat: NEVER ever tell someone except your parents.
Recommended password generators:
- To edit personal student related information like the password, click in the top right corner on the students user name.
3. Change profile information
Profil information are only visible to other members of the Junior Coding Club. Add information about yourself cautiously and only if it is relevant for your class mates.
In the My Office Profile page you can add (and edit):
- Profile picture
- Birthday
- About me
- Projects worked on
- Skills and expertise
- Phone Number
