Take the LoTi Digital-Age Survey

Following are instructions for both new and returning users to take the LoTi Digital-Age Survey.

Instructions for New Users
NEW users are defined as educators who have never registered in the LoTi Lounge or taken any version of the LoTi Survey in the past.

Access the LoTi Lounge at: http://www.lotilounge.com
Click on the link that says 'Sign Me Up!' (in the 'I'm a New User' section of the LoTi Lounge login block) to complete a ONE TIME registration sequence that will both identify you as part of your state/district/school and as an individual user.
Follow the registration instructions on the screen. You will first be prompted to enter your Group ID and Password. Entering this information will ensure that your survey is included with your state's annual data and will bring up options to select your district and school. The Group ID and Password is the name of your state in all lower case letters without any spaces. For example:
- GroupID: newjersey
- Password: newjersey
Next, you will be prompted to enter your User Information including a User ID and Password of your choosing. This User ID and password should be something you will remember as it is what you will use to login to LoTi Lounge in the future.* It is strongly recommended that you WRITE DOWN your selected User ID and User Password information as many school districts take the survey more than once and it is necessary to re-access the LoTi Lounge system.
Next, you will be prompted to enter your Email address. Entering a valid email address is necessary to have full access to LoTi Lounge.
Finally, you will be prompted to select your organization from a structural list that has already been entered into the computer based on the Group ID you entered above (e.g., your state name in lower case letters). Choose your school district from the pop-up list. The list will refresh with the names of all schools in the district. Choose your school from the pop-up list and click 'Continue' to complete the registration process.

* Note: If you wish to go through the process of taking the survey without receiving a score or so that you can instruct others, simply use the User ID [test_yourname], the password [test], and the email address [yourname@test.com]. Please substitute your name for 'yourname' in the previous sentence when creating a test User ID so that the User ID and Password are recognized as unique by the LoTi Lounge system. These records are deleted from the survey database each night.

Instructions for Returning Users
RETURNING users are defined as educators who have already registered in the LoTi Lounge or taken any version of the LoTi Survey in the past, and who already have a LoTi Lounge User ID and User Password.

Access the LoTi Lounge at: http://www.lotilounge.com
Enter your previously registered User ID and Password in the fields provided (in the 'I'm already registered' section of the LoTi Lounge login block), then click 'Submit' to enter the LoTi Lounge. If you are a registered user but do not remember your LOGIN information, click on the 'Need help signing in?' link. Entering your email address will prompt the LoTi Lounge system to email you a copy of your previously registered User ID and Password.
