We are using Jr/Sr undergraduates here to run help sessions at night for our calculus students and usually enter these assistants into our webwork courses as "students" with permission level 0. What other permission levels are available (0-10?) and what have others used for such assistants?
Thank you!

Hi Jeff,
Permission levels are defined in the global.conf file, in the %userRoles hash. In WeBWorK 2.3, these are
%userRoles = (
guest => -5,
student => 0,
proctor => 2,
ta => 5,
professor => 10,
);
and in WeBWorK 2.4,
%userRoles = (
guest => -5,
student => 0,
login_proctor => 2,
grade_proctor => 3,
ta => 5,
professor => 10,
);
You can see what these different permissions authorize by looking in the %permissionLevels hash.

Hi Jeff,
We usually give teaching assistants the ta (i.e. 5) permission level.
If you go to Course Configuration and look at Permissions you will see the default permission levels. TA's can:
view past answers
view problems in sets which are not open yet
see the correct answers before the answer date
see solutions before the answer date
You may want to allow TA's to act as another user but by default we restrict this to professors.
