What is “Observer” access?
When you modify your menu items you may notice the option to allow observer access. For the most part, you can ignore this. Observer access is a one-on-one role in which one user is assigned to observer another user’s work in the course. For example, the observer role is used more frequently in the K-12 schools, where a parent could view their child’s (and only their own child’s – one else’s) work. If you have a need for this, contact the request this using the “request for access” form, providing both names.
