Choose your pronouns
When pronouns are editable, you can select your pronoun values in the profile page. Select your name in the navigation bar. Add or edit the values as needed.
To add pronouns, in the Select your pronouns field, you can select multiple values. You can choose the order they appear to other users. If pronoun options for multiple languages were defined by the administrator, you can add the pronouns you use in those additional languages you speak.
If you don’t see the pronoun options best suited to your needs, you can make a request if allowed. Requests are sent to the administrator for review and approval.
In your courses, your pronouns appear in various locations of interactive tools, group activities, and name lists. If you do not want others to see your pronouns, you should remove them.
