How do I hide grades that were previously posted in the Gradebook?
Answer
Instructors can hide grades or submission comments already posted for students to view. Canvas cautions that this option should be used sparingly and temporarily, such as when posting grades in error. This feature only works for already posted grades and submission comments.
Use the Speedgrader to hide grades or submission comments that were already posted.
What happens when I hide grades?
If you hide grades and comments for specific assignments, students cannot see or access new notifications regarding the following:
- Their grade on the assignment
- Notifications about grade changes or updates
- Submission comments
- Score change notifications
You will know that grades are hidden when Speedgrader shows the Visibility icon next to the assignment title, similar to how it appears when using a Manual Grade Posting Policy.
