·          Course Builders and Teaching Assistants: Courses set to Unavailable will appear in the Courses in which you are participating section of the My Courses module and in the Course List on the Courses common area. The course will be indicated as Unavailable. The course is still accessible by course builders and teaching assistants.

 

·          Graders: Courses set to Unavailable will appear in the Courses in which you are participating: section of the My Courses module and in the Course List on the Courses tab. The course will be indicated as Unavailable to others but is accessible by Graders.
