How do I add students, teaching assistants or SSU faculty/staff to my course?

You probably won't need to add students. The WebCT-CMS integration tool will automatically add registered students to your course a few days before the semester begins, and updates your WebCT course roster every night to reflect adds and drops.

You'll need to know the username of the person you want to add, and it will only work if that person has an account in WebCT. We've created accounts for all SSU employees and students, but if you need to add someone who is a volunteer, contractor, or has some other affiliation that isn't "employee" or "student" contact the Web Office.

If you don't know the username of the person, use the Seawolf (LDAP) Lookup Tool to look it up:

To Add a Member

  1. Go into your WebCT course.
  2. Click the Teach tab.
  3. Click Grade Book (in Instructor Tools).
  4. Click Enroll Members.
  5. Type the username of the person you'd like to add.
  6. Check the appropriate role checkbox- Student, Teaching Assistant, Auditor or Section Designer.
    Note: only the Web Office can manually add an Instructor to a course.
  7. Click Enroll.
  8. Click Save.

How do I change someone's role in my course?

Contact the Web Office if you need someone already in your course to have a different type of access. For example, if one of your student's should have access to TA tools, or if a Designer should also be an instructor. Please let us know the name of the course and the person's username.
