Create Options for Muting and Un-muting

[cynthiabishop]

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

Whether I am setting up a Canvas course or closing one out at the end of the term, I find a need to be able to Mute or Un-mute ALL assignments without having to do one at a time.  With five courses, this gets very time consuming.  I believe the drop-down menu should give options to mute or un-mute ALL or SELECT (individual) assignments.  I hope this flies!!

• - also not really what you are looking for, but you may still want to check it out.

Here is a recently archived idea that seems to fit what you are seeking perfectly:

Once the new process is unveiled, the Community Team will evaluate your submission and decide whether to move it forward for the next voting period.

This is a good idea.  I sometimes was to play around with a participation grade to see if raising or lowering it has a significant effect on the student's final grade.  When doing the final grading students get very interested and notice any little change so I would rather the back end be opaque to them until the instructor has finalized the grades.

As I mute assignments for the upcoming semester . . . one assignment at a time, three clicks per assignment . . . I long for a way to "mute all" at once. Or maybe "select all," then mute/unmute the assignments I've selected. My mouse button fingers are getting tired!
