Comparison of Teaching Roles within MyLO

You are here

Roles and Permissions are how we set what functionality is available to different users within MyLO. Permissions correspond to tools in Brightspace and D2L products, for example, the ability to create discussion topics or edit a unit’s navbar. When a user accesses a unit within MyLO they have access to the features set up for their role in that unit. The below shows the permissions for each of the teaching roles within MyLO for specific tools at the unit level.
