| Switch to slide no 1 | Welcome to Spoken-tutorial . In the coming few minutes we will talk on assigning roles in Moodle . |
| Switch to slide 2 | By default, teachers are only allowed to assign the roles of non-editing
teacher, student, and guest. If you want to assign the role of teacher, you will need to ask your system administrator for this to be allowed. To assign a user the role of student: 1. Click “Assign roles” in the Administration block. 2. Choose the type of role you wish to assign, e.g., student 3. On the “Assign roles” page, there are two columns.The left column lists users who currently have that role, and the right column lists users who don’t. |
| Switch to slide 3 | Between the two columns in the “Assign Roles” page is a hidden assignment checkbox next to an eye icon, for hiding which role a user is assigned to so that the user doesn’t appear in the list of course participants. Click the checkbox before assigning a role if required. |

2. Click the Roles tab and then click the “Override roles” link just below the tabs. 3. Choose the role you want to override, e.g., student. 4. Modify the permissions for the override on this activity. (The permissions the role currently has are highlighted in white.) 5. Click the “Save changes” button. Anyone with the role you have just overridden will now have those capabilities in this activity when they next log in to Moodle. |
