In Chapter 5, Administrating Courses in Blackboard Learn, we discussed the different roles users can have within a course and what users can do with those roles. Our Blackboard Learn instance has a set of default course roles with the following titles.
Course Builder
Grader
Instructor
Student
Teaching Assistant
Guest
We can see a list of these by clicking on the System Admin tab. Under the Users module, we find the Course/Organization Roles link that will take us there, as shown in the following screenshot:
This page gives us a list of our roles and their names in the courses (and organizations, if we have Blackboard Community). We might call these roles by different names within our organization, but for our instance, we will change the title instructor role's name to teacher or professor.
