What you'll Need

• A paid School or District plan including at least one of the following products: BrainPOP, BrainPOP Jr., BrainPOP ELL
• Familiarity with the Clever integration features: Getting Started with Integrations
• Clever admin access for your school or district's Clever account

Requesting the BrainPOP Suite App

The BrainPOP Suite app allows you to share roster data for the entire school or district across all relevant products. It eliminates the need to share rostering data with three separate apps (BrainPOP, BrainPOP Jr., and BrainPOP ELL). 

NOTE: The BrainPOP Suite App will remain invisible to teachers and students upon signing into Clever.

You can locate the BrainPOP Suite app in your Clever marketplace for applications. From the home screen of your Clever admin account, click App Store on the left hand side.

Search BrainPOP Suite in the search bar and select it. It should be the top result.

From here, you can request the BrainPOP Suite app by clicking Add to your Clever account.

After the request is made, you should expect to hear back from us within 1-3 business days to approve the app request. We'll also confirm next steps and data clearing preferences before we provision your accounts.

Matching Existing Accounts

If you already have teacher and student users with individual accounts on your plan, it's important to know how setting up the Clever integration will handle those accounts.

If teacher accounts have been created, the existing accounts will be matched to provisioned Clever teacher accounts by the teacher's email address. However, teachers may lose access to their previous rosters and assignments, particularly if the teacher's school association changes when their Clever account is provisioned.

Because we collect very limited student data, we cannot match any existing rosters or student accounts created before the Clever integration with the new integration. For this reason, we typically recommend clearing student data before proceeding with provisioning accounts. You can find out more about clearing student data in this article.

Provisioning Accounts

Once the BrainPOP Suite app is approved, you can share your district's rostering data.

We recommend that you share all records in your district. The BrainPOP Suite app  doesn't display for teachers and students, so there's no risk of oversharing on this step.

If you would prefer to limit your sharing, you can share by records by school, and choose the schools that have School BrainPOP plans.

Once you've shared data, we'll provision the teacher, student, and classes for the schools that have plans within your district, and we'll invite you to the Instant Login Apps that apply to the products in their plans.

Instant Login Apps

Once we've sent out the invites to our apps, you should see them with your other applications. Click View Invite.

Click Accept to accept the invite.

Each app invite will come with recommended sharing based on the product access for your schools. Select Use BrainPOP's recommendation and click Share to apply it.

Repeat the process for the other instant login apps.

Teachers and students should now see the instant login apps in their Clever dashboard along with other applications.

NOTE: Launch dates for the BrainPOP apps can be set in Clever during setup or can be pushed to a date that works best for your school or district. 

Matching Existing Accounts

If you already have teacher and student users with individual accounts on your plan, it's important to know how setting up the Clever integration will handle those accounts.

If teacher accounts have been created, they will be matched to provisioned Clever teacher accounts by the teacher's email address. However, the teacher may lose access to their previous rosters and assignments, particularly if the teacher's school association changes when their Clever account is provisioned.

Because we collect very limited student data, we cannot match any existing rosters or student accounts created before the Clever integration with the new integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can staff log in through Clever?

Currently our integration with Clever requires Clever users to have a teacher role in order to be automatically provisioned into our system. If you have staff with staff roles in Clever who want to log in via SSO to BrainPOP, you can manually upload them to Clever as a teacher. Once the account is created and shared with our Clever apps, the teacher will be added during our nightly sync.

Can I set up co-teachers for classes in Clever?

Not at this time. If sections in Clever have more than one teacher, only the primary teacher will have access to the class. As an alternative, Clever admins can create duplicate classes with identical rosters by uploading custom sections through the Clever dashboard that will sync over to BrainPOP.

Is there a way to associate students and teachers with multiple schools?

No. While BrainPOP typically does allow Multi-school Teachers to function, this feature is not yet available to Clever users. We are working with Partner Engineering to make this an option in the near future. Multi-School students are also not yet supported by BrainPOP so this is also not yet a function available to Clever users.
