Student

Student can access content in various sections based on the permissions set by the instructor. Students can attend classes and complete activities assigned to them based on the conditions and time set by the instructor.

Invited Student

Invited students can access content in different sections that are authorized by the instructor. Students can participate in learning and activities assigned based on conditions and times set by the instructor. The difference from the role of 'Student' is that they will not be removed from the course by the system (to prevent name syncing from the Course Portal system).
