Speed Grader Access

[kperez108]

How do you access Speedgrader from the Gradebook?

Here's what I see when I click on the three vertical dots. Useful drop-down items, Due date, Speedgrade, Mute

I know if I click on the assignment title, and then the three vertical dots, I can access it, but surely this extra step is not needed?

Hello,  @kperez108 ‌, instructors access SpeedGrader from the New Gradebook by clicking on any grade cell in the assignment column. That pops open the Grade Detail Tray which gives access to the SpeedGrader for that assignment. You'll find details in https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-16570-4152814114

I understand that I must click on a "student" to access the Speedgrader for the assignment they turned in. My question is to the Grade Column itself, not the student itself. 

The "assignment column" has a drop-down menu with the following available items as: Sort By, Message student who, Curve grades, Set grade defaults, no grades to post, no grades to hide, Enter grades as, download submissions, & Grading Posting policy. 

1) Is there not a way to add Speedgrader, Mute Assignment, and Due Date to this menu?

"Mute assignment" has been replaced by "Post Policies" in the New Gradebook. For more information, please review New Gradebook and SpeedGrader Muting Behavior Changes
