What Is the Best Way to Set Up My Project?

Maybe that could be some type of future features request. Have the school sign up for a “master” account and be able to add students under that account.

There was a request for student accounts, which iNat staff decided to not move forward on: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/create-separate-accounts-for-students-assigned-to-use-inaturalist/83

I think @reuvenm’s suggestion works, but the observation field is not a workable solution with collection projects. The only way to fill out an observation field with the app is to make that field part of a traditional project. So therein lies the rub when it comes to observation fields.

@cthawley

We had many more issues with students uploading poor quality observations or posting pics from the web, and students were often not responsive to requests to fix these.

Yes, in my experience the vast majority of problematic content comes from students being made to use iNaturalist.
