Grade Book Syncs to Outline Manager
Course Customizations All course customizations should occur using the Outline Manager. What if I unhide an activity using the Outline Manager? The activity will not be automatically un-excluded in the Gradebook. This is a one-way feature meaning if you… –Hide an activity = the activity is Excluded automatically –But if you want to add it back in = you will have to make changes in the Gradebook
