So I had deleted an exam column and had to recover it - and this forum helped (thank you). However, now their grades are in "blue" and I can't type over them, and they're not being calculated into the students' overall grade. How do I fix this?
@lmt0045 How did you recover the exam column? I assume it was an assignment that was deleted and then rescued from the /undelete page.
@james_whalley - it was actually the exam column I recovered with the /undelete command!
@lmt0045 I just want to clarify. When you say "exam column", is that column connected to an assignment or a quiz? I ask because columns only exist in relation to graded activities (discussions/assignments/quizzes), which work a little differently when manually entering grades. Also, did you use a rubric for the exam grading?
It was an exam. I did not use a rubric.
@lmt0045 Can you clarify which specific tool? I know some of the tools have different names in different regions. Maybe you can take a screenshot of the exam to help clarify.
