Enrolling Non-Carleton Accounts in your Course

Pretext

It is possible for people who do not have @carleton.edu email addresses to login to our Moodle server using their own Gmail account (either institutional or personal). For example, people with @stolaf.edu accounts can use the Gmail login instructions below. If the user does not have a gmail account, they can easily sign up for one.

 

Logging into Carleton's Moodle with a non-Carleton Gmail account

  1. Go to Carleton's Moodle server at https://moodle.carleton.edu
  2. Click the Google sign in button
    • A new screen will appear to select or type in the appropriate Gmail account
    • Then enter the corresponding Gmail password
  3. If prompted, click the blue [Allow] button to allow Carleton's Moodle server to connect to your account

 

Enrolling Non-Carleton Accounts in your Course

The instructor for the course must enroll the Gmail account manually to their course page AFTER the user has logged into our server and created a Carleton Moodle account. Instructors can use the standard manual enrollment instructions to search for and enroll the user's account in their course site.

  1. Instructor must select their course
  2. Select the Participants option (on the left-hand side)
  3. Click 'Enrol users'
  4. In 'Select users', type the Gmail address of the user
  5. Click on the option that matches the Gmail address
  6. Change the 'Assign role' to the appropriate role for the user
  7. Click 'Enrol selected users and cohorts'

The user is now enrolled and can access the course via 'Non-Carleton Accounts'
