How do I add or remove students from the student list?

Learn how to add missing students and remove withdrawn students.

Derivita may not receive a roster from your LMS, so there may be times that its list of students doesn't match what the LMS shows. It updates to match over time, but you can learn more and manually make changes with the directions below.

Adding students

Students are added to Derivita's list when they first open a Derivita assignment in the course. So if some students are missing near the start of a course, that's normal; they just haven't opened Derivita yet.

To add a student to the list, have them open any Derivita assignment in the course.

Removing students

Derivita tries to automatically hide the information of students who are no longer in your course. But if you need to do so by hand, you can use the following steps:

1. Open any Derivita assignment and click Students:
   
2. Next to the student's name, click the three dots and choose Remove Student:

Reinstating students

If you ever need to re-add students who have been removed from Derivita's list, you can:

1. Open any Derivita assignment and click Students:
2. Click the three dots in the top right, then choose Reinstate Students:
