Formal Roles
Formal roles are defined in PEGASUS and can only be updated via the PEGASUS Roles and Responsibilities application.
All of the formal roles are constrained by Student Business / HR rules, and may not be assignable if a particular user doesn't satisfy those rules.

Users are able to maintain their own roles and responsibilities. In addition administrative staff in departments typically have access to maintain other members of staff' roles |
For issues with assigning staff via Roles & Responsibilities see Add Formal Staff Roles to a Class.
Informal Roles
Informal roles may be assigned directly within Myplace and represent users that have a less formal responsibility to the class.
| Title | Also Known As | Description | Capabilities Granted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tutor | This is a "catch all" teaching role. It is frequently used with Limited Access accounts or for users that may only need to be a "member of staff" on the class for a short period of time. |
| |
| Non-editing TUtor | This is a teaching role that has no capability to modify the content of the class site. |
| |
| Visitor | This is a limited access role that allows access to the materials in a class, but does not allow the user to do any of the activities. |
|
| Warning |
|---|
All management of Informal Roles is the responsibility of the local, owning department to maintain. Myplace support will not assign or un-assign roles that can be locally managed. |
Other Roles
A number of other roles may be assigned by the Myplace Support Team to accomodate specific business practices.
If you wish to assign users to this role please contact learning-technologies@strath.ac.uk
| Warning |
|---|
Myplace support will not assign to a user any role that they have requested themselves. All requests should come from the user's line manager. |
| Title | Description |
|---|---|
| Faculty / Departmental Administrator | This role affords the same capabilities as the Class Administrator role, but may be assigned at a category level. Typical uses are where a member of staff has responsibility for a large number of modules and it would be overly burdensome to allocate them to each module individually. |
| Faculty / Departmental Learning Technology Advisor | This role is only assignable at category level, and is for staff with a responsibility to support Learning Technology over a wide range of modules (e.g. a department). This role may also afford access to additional tools not normally available to staff. |
| Learning Technology Advisor | This role is only available to Myplace Support Staff. |
