  • Behind Groups you can select the group by which you want to filter.

You can also flag persons. You do this by clicking the flag icon next to the picture of the person. You would flag someone if you want to find them easily.

You can search for specific students/instructors by typing the person's name in the search bar (Search For). Click on Show Search Options for a more specific search.

  • Role: Search by role.

    • Then click on email.

Overview course enrollments

  • Click Enrollment Statistics for an overview of enrollments and un-enrollments.

The overview shows all possible roles and how many people with a certain role are in your course. For example, you see how many students are enrolled (Enrollments) and how many students have withdrawn and when (Withdrawals). You can still e-mail people who have un-enrolled.

Students are automatically added to the course, based on their registration in Osiris. You may add students to the course through Brightspace manually when they for any reason cannot register via Osiris. An instructor can add staff members to the course and give them an instructor role. Please see the article How do I add users to my course for more information.
