Creating and Managing Cohorts
Overview
This guide walks professors and instructors through the process of creating and managing cohorts on N-aible. A cohort is your classroom workspace — where you assign simulations, track student progress, and manage team-based learning experiences.
Whether you’re setting up a new course or reusing last semester’s cohort, N-aible makes it easy to organize and guide your students in one place.
Creating a Cohort
Each cohort serves as a structured environment for your students to access simulations, assignments, and collaborative tools. Here’s how to set it up
Step 1: Log in to your Professor Dashboard on N-aible.
Step 2: Navigate to the “Cohorts” tab.
Step 3: Click “Create New Cohort” and enter the course details — such as name, description, and term.
Step 4: Add your desired simulation or activity for the class.
Step 5: Generate an access code or invite link to share with students.
Once created, you can monitor student enrollment, view submissions, and evaluate performance — all from your dashboard.
For example:
Cohort Name: Entrepreneurship 101 – Fall 2025
Simulation: Startup Pitch Challenge
Access Code: ENTR25
Managing Your Cohort
After set up you can:
Track student participation in real time.
View and grade simulation submissions.
Update or close cohorts when the term ends.
Invite co-instructors or teaching assistants for collaboration.
