Hiding Course Participants List from Students

If you assign students with accommodations to anonymous* groups to give them early access to presentations, you may wish to hide the participants list from students. To do this, do the following: 

1. Go to your course and select participants,
2. Go to the enrolled users dropdown menu and select permissions.
3. In the filter textbox, enter in the words "view participants."
4. Select the trashcan next to the word "student."

*You must assign students to groups with random names to ensure confidentiality. For example, you can create "group polka dot" or "group 007." For more info on setting up groups, select this groups link.
