Add User Function

When adding a user to a course, it seems I have to type in the user's email address by hand. Having a search feature that automatically populates based on what I am typing would be helpful. For example, as I type Jan... (toward typing in JaneDoe@myschool.edu), matching emails at myschool will be suggested.

It would also be nice to have a dialogue box that let us see teachers, students, etc to select from.

Thank you

Thanks for starting this conversation. Are you an admin or a teacher at your school?

I find it odd that you cannot simply add by name?

Adding by e-mails, Login ID or SIS-ID (!) makes no sense to most non-admin users IMO.

Regardless of method, an automatic lookup in the database as you start typing would be nice (and is widely available in other online applications).
