Hi,
I am an instructor. The Totals column is missing from the gradebook. Is there a setting that needs to be changed? It's not that in the Settings, the "Hide totals in student grades summary" (which applies to students anyway) is checked.
Thanks,
Asif
Solved! Go to Solution.
There is also a setting within the gradebook itself to hide the totals column. Please check whether that is selected.
From the gradebook, on the top right, you should see 3 buttons, import, export and a settings wheel. Click the wheel .
A sidebar will open with 3 tabs, select the third one, "View Options". Under there, you will see an option to "Hide Total Column". Is that option selected?
If so, unselect it (like in the image above)
@AsifShakeel - while @Gabriel33 has the likely solution, I wish to add that it is also possible to move the total column to the front of the gradebook. If that is true, it is easy to overlook as it is in what may be an unexpected position.
