To add students to your Moodle course, you typically enroll them through the course's participant list.
Adding users to a Moodle course is a common task for instructors managing their digital learning environment. While Moodle offers various enrollment methods, such as self-enrollment or synchronizing with student information systems, the most direct way to manually add an individual student or user is through the Participants section of your course page.
Here are the general steps to manually enroll users based on the provided reference:
Steps to Enroll Users Manually
Following these steps allows you to search for specific individuals and add them to your course with a designated role (like student).
- Access Your Course:
- Go to the Moodle page for your course. You need to be logged in and navigate to the specific course you wish to add students to.
- Navigate to Participants:
- Click on the Participants tab at the top of the screen. This tab provides an overview of who is currently enrolled in your course and allows you to manage enrollments.
- Initiate Enrollment:
- Click the Enroll Users button in the upper left corner of the page. This action will open a popup window designed for finding and enrolling users.
- Search for the User:
- Use the Search box at the bottom of the popup window to find the user you'd like to enroll. You can usually search by name or username. Once found, you can select their name and proceed with the enrollment process, typically confirming their role (e.g., Student).
This manual method is useful for adding specific individuals who may not have been automatically enrolled or need to be added outside of standard processes.
