You can designate a team of people to help you run your course. Two roles are available to give team members access to additional options for working with students, grades, and other members of the staff.
You can assign these privileged roles when you work in either the LMS or Studio. The people who have these roles can work on your course in Studio, the LMS, and Insights. For more information about assigning roles to team members in Studio, see Add Course Team Members.
You can also designate teams of people to beta test your course or to moderate and manage its discussions by assigning other roles in the LMS. Beta testers and discussion team members must be enrolled in your course, but they do not need to have the Staff or Admin role. For more information, see Beta Testing a Course and Assign Discussion Administration Roles.
To provide access to features on the LMS Instructor Dashboard, you assign the Staff role or the Admin role.
Team members with the Staff role can complete these tasks.
Team members with the Admin role have access to all of the same options for running the course as team members with the Staff role. They can also complete these tasks.
Add and remove Staff.
Add and remove other Admins.
Add and remove Beta Testers.
Add and remove Discussion Admins, Discussion Moderators, and Discussion Community TAs.
Note
To moderate course discussions, team members must have one of these discussion roles assigned to them in addition to the Staff or Admin role. For more information, see Assign Discussion Administration Roles.
