How are students added to a course site?
Students are given access to course sites in which they are enrolled automatically. Cross listed or other students not listed in SIS will have to request access to the course site from the instructor. To add a student to your site, go to the Site Editor, click Add participants. Type in the email of the student. If they have a Tufts email, use the top box. If they do not, use the bottom box and make sure to send notification. You must choose the “Student-Nonregistered” role when adding students manually. If you add people to the “Student” role they will be removed everyday when the SIS feed updates. (The same is true for the “Instructor” role – it is reserved for use by SIS. Choose the “Teaching Assistant” or “Guest Instructor” role instead, to add non-Tufts instructors.)
Note: Enrolled students who drop your class will automatically be removed during Trunk’s daily SIS update.
