[edit] Logging in at the Same Time
You can log in with your instructor NetID and the temporary student NetID at the same time by using two browsers. Log into one browser using your instructor login and in the other browser log in as the student. It does not matter which browser you use for each account. If you do not have a second browser you can download Mozilla Firefox.
