Common uses cases for manually adding a user to your course site include students who are auditing your class or acting as a teaching assistant, providing access to another faculty member, or adding a faculty assistant who was not originally listed in Albert as a course admin.
Manually adding participants
- Navigate to your course on NYU Brightspace.
- On the navbar, click More Tool and select Classlist.
- From the Add Participants drop-down menu, select Add existing users. This means anyone at NYU with an active NET ID.
- Under Add Existing Users, in the Search field, enter the NetID of the user you want to add and click on the magnifying glass to perform a search.
- In the search results list at the bottom of the page, select the check box alongside the name of the user you want to add, and then select the appropriate role for the user.
- Add the user to the relevant section (usually just one is available). Teaching assistants have access to all sections within the same course site.
- To send the user an enrollment email, select the Send Enrollment email check box.
- Click Enroll Selected Users.
- Click Done.
