Switching roles

Overview:

This guide will show you how to switch roles in your module, for example switching from the teacher view to the student view. This function can be very helpful when you want to check what other roles see on your module. For example, if you have hidden a topic, you can double-check if students are no longer able to see that topic.

Step 1: Click on your profile picture and "Switch role to..."
Step 2: Choose the roles that you want to switch into
Step 3: Switch back to your normal role
