Click on Grade Center in the left Course Management menu, then click Full Grade Center to manage and organize Columns.
Managing and Organizing All Columns

- Click the box next to name of the column you would like to show or hide.
- Then scroll to the bottom (or top) of the screen and click show/hide then whether you would like to “Hide Selected Columns” “Show Selected Columns” or “Show Selected Columns in All Grade Center Views.” You may also reorder them here for for easier viewing inside your Grade Center.
- Be sure to Submit your changes before exiting the Column Organization page or your changes will not be applied.
Managing Single Columns in the Full Grade Center
- If you would like to manage single columns this can be done in the Full Grade Center view.
- Columns can be hidden from users using the chevron (down arrow) beside the column heading.
- Here you can Show or Hide the column from students by clicking “Hide from Students (on/off)“.
- If you would like to Hide the column from yourself to simplify your grade center view, click “Hide from Instructor View”. This column can then be unhidden with the Column Organization steps described above.
