As a "Teacher" on canvas, how am I able to add the "student" or "designer" role if it is not already available in the drop down menu. Attached below is a picture.
The option either comes up blank, or with other roles I do not want to add.

Hello Jasmine,
This is an admin feature that has to be turned on for you in a Teacher Role. I would reach out to your admin at your institution to request for the ability to add Students to that course.

Can you indicate where the Course Roles are located as the image depicts? I couldn't find it in Settings > Course Details and other tabs.
Thank you.
