Roles and permissions

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your role overrides video - your voice is clear and easy to understand.

As you've no doubt discovered, there are many things that can be done with role overrides, including preventing students from editing forum posts. However, I notice that GHOP task 28 requires a demonstration of how to use role overrides to give students extra capabilities, rather than less. Also, as the video should be for teachers, you need to enable teachers to set role overrides, then begin your video by logging in with a teacher account.

I suggest your video demonstrates how to enable students to rate posts in a particular forum. You may find the forum permissions documentation helpful, also the guidelines for creating Moodle tutorial videos.

I'm going to move this discussion to the roles and capabilities forum for other people in the community to comment too. You may wish to subscribe to the forum.

Best wishes and thanks for participating in GHOP.
