Adding participants to your D2L course site

By On · Add Comment

Note: Students who add or drop a course through PAWS are also automatically added or dropped from the corresponding D2L Classlist overnight (excluding holidays). Manually adding or deleting a student via the D2L Classlist will conflict with the overnight update process, yielding unintended consequences.

To add individuals to a D2L course site:

1. Click [Classlist] on your navigation bar

2. Click on [Add Participants] and select [Add Existing Users]

3. In the search box, type only the ePanther username (NOTE: if the person doesn’t have an ePantherID or you are not sure what it is, search for them by last name)

4. Click on the “Search” icon (a magnifying glass) or hit “Enter” on your keyboard.

5. In the search results, click to check the box beside the correct person’s name

6. Use the dropdown menu to select the desired role of the participant (e.g., student, guest instructor, etc).

7. Click on [Enroll Selected Users]

8. Click on [Done] if you are finished or [Add More Participants] to repeat the process for individual participants.
Note: You can do a lot more than just enroll people from your Classlist. You can also: 
  • remove people from your Classlist
  • change their role
  • view people’s profile pages
  • see what items they have accessed in your course site
  • send email to individuals or groups

Type any of the topics in your search bar and check out all the available options!
