This extract will help you learn how to manage roles and grant permissions to users in different contexts. We will cover the assignment of roles,the modification of existing roles and the creation of new roles before we deal with any role-related settings. You would learn what roles are and how they are applied in different contexts. We then cover the modification of existing roles before creating our own custom roles, such as Parent,Inspector, or Librarian. Finally, we look at the management of administrative role-related settings. Getting your head around the roles concept in Moodle is vital if you wish to add/remove functionality for a distinct group of users.
