Click the Projects tab and then click the New Project button.

Name the project and fill in any details about it. Use the tags field to describe the subject matter, location, and level.

For Privacy, choose By Invitation. This means other members of the English360 community can see your project but will have to request permission to join it.

When you're finished, click the Create Project button. The project is saved automatically on English360.com and is accessible whenever you log onto the website. All projects that you create and belong to are listed on your Dashboard and Projects page.

The next step is to create scaffolding within your project by adding folders and pages.

Click Add Folder and give your folder a descriptive name. Then click Add.

English360 creates a folder with a blank untitled page in it. Select that page to edit it.

Project pages are saved in draft mode, which means they're only visible to you. When you're ready to share them, click the publish this page link.

Now you're ready to fill the pages of your project with content. You can create original content inside English360 or adapt it from other courses. Think of project pages as containers for instructional content.

Click the Add Item button to see the many content types available in English360. Choose one and try adding text, links, or a performance event to see how they work. When you're finished, click Save.

You can also search for content and review the Business Presentations in English sample course listed on your Projects page. This content is provided free of charge and can be easily incorporated into your own projects.

Use English360's calendar to schedule and plan classroom and online activities, which then show up as shared events on your students' calendars. Click Add Item and then choose Class or Performance to create a calendar event.

Click the Invite Someone button on the project page to add students to that project.

If your students are already English360 members, click to add their names or enter their names and search for them.

Otherwise scroll down and enter their names and e-mail addresses. Then click the Send Invitation button.

Your students will receive e-mail inviting them to join English360. When they click the link to activate and log in, they will be asked to fill in their profile and any payment information.

Once they register, your students show up in your network as contacts and are members of this project.
