access to all of your courses in your name, they can access your course
materials, including the ability to take quizzes, see your quiz results
and send e-mail or post messages to the bulletin board in your name.
When taking quizzes make sure that when
you press "Submit Answer" button, that you wait for the red
ball to turn into a green star before going to the next question.
If you press the "Submit Answer" before the previous
