contributor

A managed, affiliated, or unaffiliated instructor who was invited to contribute to a course owned by another instructor. Contributors can help develop, edit, and manage the course, but do not have the same privileges as the owner. For example, contributors cannot:

• Edit the course institution or licensing information

• Submit the course to the iTunes U catalog

• Add additional instructors to the course

• Delete, duplicate, transfer, or send a copy of the course

• Add materials to the course from their My Materials Library

The private course and upload storage restrictions associated with an unaffiliated instructor apply only when the unaffiliated instructor is the owner of a course, not the contributor. Compare managed instructor, affiliated instructor, unaffiliated instructor, and owner.
