Hi,

I would like to use educator tools e.g. setting up classes and seeing student work.

Currently I am able to link a github repo to an activity and I have tested using the activity with a second account.

I was almost expecting to see completion by the second account but there is nothing showing.

Do I need to register for an educator account and if so, how do I do it?
