The following article details the primary methods that instructors can use to hide Grade Items within a course.
Please note that the course layout, steps, and screenshots shown below may differ slightly for your campus.
The methods provided in this article include hiding the item from students, hiding an item from students based on dates, and hiding a Grade Item from yourself.
Note: Please note that hiding a Grade Item does not also hide any linked activities. For example, hiding an assignment's Grade Item does not hide the assignment itself from students. Hiding a Grade Item only hides the grade itself from student users.
