Description

The "role renaming" options at the bottom of the course settings page are confusing for many instructors. I've had several instances where instructors have typed their own names into the Teacher role renaming field because they didn't understand what role renaming was.

I propose that we make the role renaming options Advanced so that they are out of view of basic-level instructors but still easily available for instructors who want to use them.
