To sign up you need an email (my class use their google emails and a separate password). The free account only gives you the ability to make one timeline. It won't allow you to embed your timeline, but you can share it via a link to your e-portfolio etc. With a paid teacher account, timelines can be embedded in a class or teacher website. Along with the teacher account, students can create accounts using a class code and can collaborate on timelines.
What I really like about tiki-toki is that students are able to embed text, images and videos into their timelines giving them a very professional look and feel.
To create a timeline, students needs to first choose the start and end dates for their timeline. They then need to select a background image (copying / pasting link to image). From there, students can enter specific dates, add text and other media such as youtube videos.
Tiki-toki is an excellent resource, intuitive and fun to use and guaranteed to get your students excited about sharing their learning via this medium.
