Unblocking access to the Simulation Section

This article is intended for instructors.

This article is for Entrepreneurship, Management and Marketing simulations.

By default, the Tutorials and Practice Zone in the Preparation Phase are accessible, and the Simulation Phase is disabled when participants first access the Simulation.

To unblock the Simulation section for students, the Instructor will need to do this by using the Calendar within a single Simulation or using the Planner to configure one or multiple Simulations.

For the Calendar:

1. Go to your instructor profile for the appropriate simulation on the website at www.praxar.com.
2. Access the Calendar.
3. Add an “Access to the SIMULATION phase” event to your calendar and ensure the configuration is set to “Enable access”. Then choose a date and time for when the access should become available and select if Students can progress with or without having completed the Preparation phase first

If you wish to disable access to the Simulation section at a later stage, enter another “Access to the SIMULATION phase” event, but this time select “Disable access” and then fill in the other required details.

For the Planner:

1. Access your instructor profile at www.praxar.com and then open the Instructor Zone and after, click on the Planner icon.
2. Open the required Planner for the team version of the Simulations
3. In the Simulation menu of the Planner, select the date and time to enable access to the Simulation.
   

Disabling access again is not available when using the Planner. This can only be done if using the Calendar to schedule all the events instead.
