Earz for umbrella organisations; Earz Core
Earz offers some interesting features for umbrella (e.g. regional or national) organisations. This special subscription is called Earz Core.
• An umbrella organisation can be managed in Earz as an umbrella (=above underlying organisations).
For example: The umbrella organisation is a national organisation that stands above regional organisations. A regional organisation may contain bands (in the form of ‘classes‘).
– Earz ensures that underlying organisations are linked to the umbrella organisation.
– The umbrella organisation can grant rights to teachers (administrators) of the underlying organisations on the administration page.
• Games can be ‘linked’.
The umbrella organisation can copy Earz games to the lower organisations as so-called ‘linked copies’. This means that:
– the linked copy cannot be edited by the lower organisation
– the linked copy is automatically adjusted if changes are made to the ‘source’ game (managed by the umbrella organisation).
How to make a linked copy *)
• Mutual organisations retain their independence.
The underlying organisations can manage their own organisations, but benefit from the linked games, for example.
Both umbrella and underlying organisations otherwise have the same options as organisations with a normal ‘School’ subscription.
Please contact Ger Wolthuis for the possibilities, conditions and prices of Earz Core.
*) How to make a linked copy:
• check the ‘source game’ to make sure it is visible in the Earz-o-theque.
• go to the Earz-o-theque on the teachers’ page of the primary organisation, and click on the name of the game to be copied. Now click on the shift key on your keyboard and then on the copy symbol in the top right-hand corner (where a circle has now been drawn after you have pressed the shift key)
• the game is now a linked copy in the library of the lower organisation and can be used by them (but not edited in terms of content).
• if desired, uncheck in the ‘source game’ so that it is no longer visible in the Earz-o-theque.
