Steps

• To add people individually:
  1. Select Communication>Classlist,
  2. Select the blue Add Participants button to enter names manually.
  3. Search for the user by name or email
  4. Check next to their name, select a role to the right and select a section,
  5. Select enroll selected users
     (for editing roles such as course editor, they will have access to all sections even though a section was selected). Notes: Section is not required for Development Courses and Communities. If a section has more than 200 students, use batch enroll. If adding a course assistant or course editor or above, any section can be chosen, as that role will have access to all sections.
• To add people in bulk:
  1. Select Communication>Batch Enroll
  2. From here you can upload a .csv file with the names and roles of the people to add. The page includes examples of how the file should be formatted.
     For Batch Enroll, the link is the same in every course, and the file requires the course ID, so you can navigate to another course with the Communication link enabled to access Batch enroll, if the Communication tab is disabled. You can also use one file to enroll in multiple courses.

Additional Info

If Communication>Classlist is disabled, you can also access it by going to the Course Admin page, and then choosing Classlist from there.
