'''Teacher''' is one of the three core user roles in Moodle. The others are [[Administrator]] and [[Student]]. These roles control what you can and can't do within particular areas of a Moodle. In short, an ''Administrator'' can do almost anything and go anywhere, a ''Teacher'' has control over a specifc course within a Moodle and the experience of the ''Students'' that it contains, and a ''Student'' participates in a course.
{{Standard roles}}
 
Teachers can do anything within a course, including changing the activities and grading students.
It is recognized that the terms 'Student' and 'Teacher' may often be felt inappropriate and so the 'Teacher' of a course can choose terms such as 'Tutor', 'Facilitator', 'Trainer' and 'Participant', 'Learner', 'Customer' as is appropriate for their particular situation, with individual 'Teachers' able to edit their own title as they wish it to appear within a course (e.g. 'Visiting Academic', 'Librarian' etc.) . The terms 'Teacher' and 'Student' will not then be seen by anyone in the course of normal use. However, some decision had to be made about what to call these roles. 'Teacher' and 'Student' have been chosen, and this documentation follows the same convention.
 
The 'Teacher' (and 'Student') role is attached to a specific [[course]] in Moodle. Being a 'Teacher' in one course gives you no extra abilities in another, you must either be explicitly added to that course as a 'Teacher', added as a 'Student', or you will have no access at all.
