Manage Students - Settings

 


What do you want to do?

Allow/Disallow Self-registration | Top

You have the option of allowing self-registration in your course. If you configure your course to allow self-registration, a self-registration link appears on the Course List screen as a registration icon, and on the Welcome Page as a Create Account button. The new students in your course will be added automatically to the student listing in Manage Students.

To set up self-registration:

  1. In Manage Students, under Actions, from the Organize drop-down list, select Change settings, and click Go. The Settings screen appears.
  2. Under Self-registration, select one of the following:
    • Allow self-registation
    • Do not allow self-registration
  3. Click Update. The Manage Students screen appears.

For more information on how students self-register, see Welcome Page - Self-registering.

Records per Page | Top

The Records Per Page setting enables you to manage your class lists by limiting the number of student records displayed at a time. See Navigating Student Records for tips on viewing the student list.

  1. In Manage Students, under Actions, from the Organize drop-down list, select Change settings, and then click Go. The Settings screen appears.
  2. In the Records per page text box, enter the number of records you want to view per page.
  3. Click Update. The Manage Students screen appears.
