For Administrators

Here are some things done by administrators and how to do them:

User's Privileges - By default, when a new user is created, they are given few privileges, just like a student. A teachers account must be created and then given permission to create courses.

To do this go to:
Site Administration
>Users

Under Remissions, select Assign Roles
Click on Course Creator
Click on Add

The user (teacher) should now be able to create courses and content for their students.
