First steps
You need a Nextcloud account on your ENT, a computer or a phone with a microphone, and sheets of labels if you print. There is nothing to install and no account to create.
Steps 1 and 2 are done only once.
1. Create an app password
This is a password reserved for this tool, separate from your ENT password. You can remove it at any time without touching your account.
In your ENT's Nextcloud:
- Click your initials, at the top right, then Settings.
- In the left panel, click Security.
- Under Devices & sessions, write
coricoas the application name, then click Create new app password. - Keep the window open: the password shown will not be shown again.
2. Link your Nextcloud
In Corico, click Start, then paste the login and the password shown, and click Link.
On a phone, nothing to paste: create the app password on a computer, then touch Scan Nextcloud's QR code and point the phone at the code shown. The image stays on the phone and is not kept.
The button Where to find my Nextcloud login?, above the form, gives these steps again.
Never type your ENT login and password in Corico: only those created in Nextcloud for this tool.
Corico also asks what this device is. Personal: it is done once and for all, with no sign-in to repeat. Shared, as in the staff room: everything is forgotten when the page closes. See a personal or a shared device.
A line at the bottom of the screen then says "Saved in your Nextcloud, encrypted".
3. Create an assignment
Click New assignment, give it a title and a class, then paste your student list, one per line. You can also import a CSV or text file, for example an export from Pronote or from a spreadsheet: the columns of the last and first names are found by their titles, wherever they are, or else are taken to be the first two. Only the names are read in: the other columns stay out of the tool. Check the list that appears.
For the next assignment of the same class, choose it under List of students: you reuse its students without typing them again.
One more student? In the assignment, click Add a student. They join this assignment and the next ones of the class, but not past assignments, where they had no paper.
Installing the app
This is optional, but handy: Corico then opens like an app, with its icon, on a computer as on a phone. Click Install the app on the home page. On an iPhone or an iPad, go through Safari: Share, then Add to Home Screen. No app store is involved.
The tool also opens without a network: you can record, the sounds stay as drafts, and you send them once back online. It updates by itself when a new version comes out, never cutting a recording or a sending in progress.
