Excerpt

When grading student work, instructors might want to decide to keep grades and feedback hidden from learners until all work has been graded, for example. For grades and feedback to be fully hidden from students, both a) the grade item and/or its category and b) the graded activity itself need to be made invisible.

Note

To make the grade and feedback visible to students, please follow the steps below, but select Make Visible to Users instead of Hide from Users.

Steps to Hide a Single Grade Item 

  1. Navigate to Grades and go to the Manage Grades tab.

  2. If you would like to hide a single grade item, click on the arrow beside the desired grade item and select Hide from Users as shown in the image below.
