How can I use ACCESS in the classroom?
There are several ways you may be able to use ACCESS for teaching purposes:
Explore Science Gateways
Science Gateways provide user-friendly online interfaces to cyberinfrastructure, and support a community-specific set of tools, applications and data collections. Explore the Science Gateways catalog to see if a gateway provides the tools you need for your class. These gateways can be used without requesting your own ACCESS allocation and may provide easy access for your students.
1. Request an ACCESS Allocation
Most classroom needs can likely be met with a Discover ACCESS allocation, which is designed to cater to small-scale research activities. You'll need to provide a one-page description of the classroom activity to request an allocation.

If you're looking for particular software, say Jupyter Notebooks or Open OnDemand, you might find the Software Documentation Service (SDS) useful to explore which resources provide the software you need.How do I add students to an allocation?All students must have their own ACCESS IDs. Student accounts can be added to an allocation by the allocation PI or others designated as resource manager using those ACCESS IDs. Add them to the appropriate resources under the Activity section of your project’s management page.
Once student accounts are added through the Allocations portal, it may take some time for those accounts to be added on the allocated resource. The time required to add students to an allocation may vary by resource provider, but the general recommendation would be to allow at least one week for new students to be added to the allocation.
