Introduction
Within Blackboard Collaborate Ultra, all participants have a session role. It is important to understand these roles before creating a session. Those taking part in the session can be either a:
- Moderator
- Presenter
- Captioner
- or Participant.
Let’s take a moment to review the privileges associated with each session role:
Table of contents
Moderator
Moderators have full control over the content being shared in a session and can end a presenter’s or another moderator’s content share. Typically, this role is reserved for the module co-ordinator whose module is hosting the session.
Moderators have the ability to enable or disable session and notification settings and start and stop a recording.
Moderators can manage attendees and can control their interactions. They can promote and demote participants to/from the presenter and moderator roles. Moderators can also lower raised hand notifications and remove participants from the session.
Moderators cannot remove other moderators. In order to remove another moderator, the session’s primary moderator must first demote the attendee to the role of participant and then remove them from the session.
