Academic Course Related Roles

See this page for HOW to add or change a role.

Teacher

Teachers in a course have the most rights and permissions in a course.  Teachers are automatically assigned to courses based on Banner instructor information. This role allows ownership and content management of the course and includes adding users with roles including teacher, TA, course builder, librarian, inres and grader.  Teachers do not need to add students to courses.  Students are enrolled in course sites based on their registrations through Banner for academic courses.

...

The Grader role is assigned to individuals that strictly need access to the gradebook and grade student submitted materials (assignments, quizzes, and other activities with submissions).  Users with this role do not have the ability to change teacher related content or modify the course layout.  Teachers can assign this role to designated individuals, but like the TA role, Graders do not have the ability to assign roles in Course Site.

TRAC

The Trac role is for Trac Fellows within a course.  TRAC Fellow role will be able to view and download assignment submissions.  In addition, the TRAC Fellow role will have access to view/assign grades to assignment submissions.  Fellows WILL NOT have access to the full gradebook, only to the grading matrix of individual assignments.  In order for Fellows to have access to submissions, the role must have access to the grading matrix.   If you do not feel comfortable utilizing this role, your TRAC Fellows will have to find a workaround to receive, and comment on, student submissions outside of Course SIte. Please Note: This role does not work with Google or Turnitin Assignments.
