Anonymous ID Security page

Use this page to determine the level of access to anonymous IDs that a particular user is allowed. For example, you can allow an instructor to access only anonymous IDs but not the student ID or name in Workcenter or Activity Roster.

The access you set up on this page is not a requirement to be able to use the anonymous grading feature. Oracle recommends to limit access to anonymous IDs to only a system administrator or super user.

Access the Anonymous ID Search page (Records and Enrollment, and then Individual Activity Manager, and then Anonymous ID Search ).

Use this page to check the anonymous IDs of students against their student ID and name. This page displays the anonymous IDs assigned to each student per activity.
