Lecturer

Jeffrey Sanders is a lecturer at Mount Orange and has the Teacher role in a number of courses. (As this is a demo site, Jeffrey is enrolled in more courses than a lecturer would be normally.)

While Jeffrey cannot create new courses himself, the Teacher role allows him to add, edit and delete content and activities in courses he has access to. He can also enrol students and non-editing teachers who can help him with grading and monitoring progress.

Note the site is reset every hour on the hour.
