Illinois Compass 2g, Activating and viewing roster photos

How do I view my students' pictures in Compass?

You now have the ability to view your students' pictures in the built-in Illinois Compass 2g photo roster tool. The photo roster tool allows you to see the pictures associated with each student's iCard image, and it will provide you with a greater opportunity to associate a face with a name in your classes.

Please note that, at this time, printing the rosters does not work, and that the photo roster tool is only available for individuals with the role of "Instructor" within Illinois Compass 2g.

The following steps will allow you to turn on the roster tool:
  1. Under the "Customization" link in your Course Control Panel, click "Tool Availability."
  2. Scroll to "Open Photo Roster."
  3. Check the box in the Open Photo Roster row.
  4. Click the "Submit" button.
The photo roster tool is now activated in your course. You can access it by clicking the "Course Tools" link in your Course Control Panel and then clicking "Class Photo Roster."

NOTE: At the beginning of the semester it takes several days before freshman photos are available.
