Edit student IDs (for large courses)

Updated 19 Feb 2024

You can edit student IDs using a .csv spreadsheet file. This can be useful for courses with many students.

Edit student IDs using a spreadsheet:

1. Select Mastering Student IDs & Groups from your LMS course.
2. Choose  Export/Import Roster Details.

   This option becomes available after at least one student and joined your course and signed in.

3. Select Export to export data as a .csv file to your computer.
4. Open the .csv file from your computer to make changes like adding or changing student IDs.
5. Save the edited .csv file.
6. Select Export/Import Roster Details again.
7. Choose Browse to find the edited .csv file on your computer, and then select Import.
8. During the import process, you're asked to confirm the changes that will be made. You can always edit student details from within the course, including after you import a file.
