Answers to the questions teachers ask most about the unit planner
Your unit planner is set up by your school leadership team. These answers explain why you might not be able to edit something, and what to do about it.
🙋 FAQ
Why can I not edit this unit?
Only Curriculum Developers assigned to the course can edit its unit planners. Ask your administrator to add you to the course, or to give you special editing privileges.
Why is a category locked?
When a colleague clicks into a category, it is locked for everyone else until they move to another category or leave the page. Atlas unlocks it automatically after 5 minutes of no activity.
Can we work on a unit at the same time?
Yes. Several developers can edit a unit together, as long as they are in different categories.
Will I lose my work?
Atlas saves your work every 3 seconds. You can see a record of changes under the Actions button at the top of the page.
A section I need is missing
Categories come from your school's unit planner template. Ask your administrator, who can add categories in Admin > Manage Unit Planner Templates.
Can I attach files?
Yes. Every category type accepts attachments, including website links, files and lesson attachments.
