Hi @atsond12 , Did you allocate the assignment to your whole cohort or just the students that are meant to do the task? Canvas makes it easy to not add the “exempt’ students to the task.   If the task is only assigned to the non-exempt students then you can use the “Message Students who…’ in the Gradebook. Gareth ...

Hi, @EileenBridges I have found that the total column will show the % if there has not been a Course Grading Scheme applied (Canvas can't convert between the average % without this lookup schema). If a Grading Scheme is applied at a Course level then the Total usually shows both. I am unsure if there is a way to remove the %. The screenshots are from a test course with and without grading scheme. Cheers, Gareth      ... View more

@wilsonj81  A solution that we've used is to pull the course into a "Sandbox" course and "copy to" the real course. We often do this for any Commons course, as normal process, so that we can preview in our environment especially if there is units of measurement (e.g. Imperial vs Metric) and want to check fro consistency. This has been useful when we've wanted particular pages and/or quizzes but not the whole assignment/discussions etc.  This does require having a SandBox. ... View more

Another option is to use CSS functionality.   You can also achieve the "hiding" by using CSS display:none. This isn't removed in Canvas and allows HTML blocks (span, img, a, div...) to be hidden from view - but still accessible if you want to reactivate at a latter time. The content is still viewable if a person uses View Source (or the like) as the content is still in the HTML. This is commonly used in JS to make things appear but doesn't have to be JS controlled. I wanted an IMG to not be viewable for a short period of time, but want it to reappear after week 2 or 3. You can thing wither take out the style or set it to inline/block etc. ... View more
