| Change settings and tags | Yes | Yes | No |

Collaborate at the class level
Add instructors to a class
Within the Interactivity space, navigate to the Classes page. Click on the class to which you’d like to add collaborators.
Click Collaborate.
Type in the email address(es), and choose your preferred permissions level: Instructor or Teaching Assistant.
If you are the class owner, you can choose whether to adjust the interactive video/playlist permissions to align with the class permission. For example, if the newly added instructor has Co-editor access to an interactive video in the class and is added to the class as the Teaching Assistant, then turning on this toggle would “downgrade” their video permission from Co-editor to Facilitator.
