Adding co-designers

When you request a new site, you will be the primary designer in the site. You can add other designers from the Gradebook in your site, or we may need to add them if they don't already have an identity in the Learning Management System (LMS) database. Anyone with designer access can add or delete materials.

If you want someone to view the site but not modify it, you can add them as a student or an auditor. Ask the Helpdesk to do this if you do not know their username.

If you would like to experience the site as a student, use the 'Student View' tab in your site. Each site has its own inbuilt 'demo student' and with this user you can view the site and test quizzes as if you were a student.

The University eLearning Helpdesk will not give anyone access to your site unless you give permission. In the current LMS (CE6) the available roles are Designer, Instructor, Teaching Assistant, Auditor and Student. You may add colleagues to all roles in your own site(s) via the Gradebook except for the role of Instructor. If you would like to grant Instructor access to a colleague, please ring or email the Helpdesk with their name and Unikey.

If you want a number of others to have designer, teaching assistant or student access when the site is actived, please inform the Helpdesk when you send your application to activate the site. For more information, see Additional access.
