Designate a teaching assistant or another instructor

Updated 18 Oct 2023

1. Have the TA or other instructor register for your course as a student.
2. From your Revel course, select Settings then select Class roster.
3. Select the options menu for the student who will be an instructor or TA.
4. Select Change to instructor or Change to TA.

   Change to instructor appears only if the selected student has Pearson instructor credentials.

How are instructors and TAs different?

In Revel, TAs and instructors share most options. For example, TAs can create and edit assignments, change due dates, grade assignments, and email students.

However, they can't drop or activate students, or change their own or another student's role.

Additionally, some learning management systems (LMS) recognize TAs as students. To retain TA privileges, TAs should access their Revel course through the My courses page rather than their LMS.
