course not visible using custom role

course not visible using custom role

The Problem:   I have created a custom role and want to assign a user to a specific course using that role.    However, after enrolling the user, I log in as that user and the course is not visible. 

To create the role, I just used a copy of the editing-teacher role with no changes.  (I'll change the new role later once it is displaying - trying to create a teacher's assistant role that is somewhere between editing-teacher and non-editing-teacher)  

I then went into a course and assigned the role to a student.  (Course > Administration > Assign Roles > Select new role > select student > etc...

I then logged in as the student, but I could not see the course in either the front screen (list of courses) or in the 'courses available to you' block.

What step(s) am I missing that will make the course visible to the student under the custom role?

Thanks
