We have nursing courses that are co-taught. Some instructors are seeing gradebook column organization with one setup and others are seeing the same gradebook columns organized differently.
Is that a feature or a glitch?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @AuroraAdney,
I looked around for a bit and couldn't find a guide that specifically mentions this, but I do believe that the gradebook sorting/filtering/etc options are set per user/teacher. There are a lot of situations where in a single course, teachers are responsible for different assignments or different students, so having those options per user, even though its different from the way Canvas works for most other areas, probably does end up making the most sense.
If I am incorrect about this, I'm sure someone will quickly correct me on it.

My guess is that some instructors are looking at the regular Gradebook, and others are viewing the Gradebook Enhancements, which is a Feature Option. Instructors can toggle on and off the Gradebook Enhancements by going into Settings and then Feature Options. Personally, I prefer the original Gradebook view.
You're correct, Chris. The gradebook layout is per-user.
