Teachers will now have the ability to choose which content from a certain course is visible to students in a particular section. Specifically, teachers will be able to “hide” or “show” different parts of the course content.
How to Hide or Show Content
- Navigate to the teacher view of a section
- Right click on any content in the left navigation panel where all unit, lesson and step titles are shown. You will see the option to Hide if the content is currently shown to students and Show if the content is currently hidden to students . Note that the content can be a unit, a lesson, or step.
- If a unit name is selected, then upon clicking Hide or Show, all lessons and steps within that unit will be hidden (or shown if they are already hidden)
- If a lesson name is selected, then upon clicking Hide or Show, all steps within that lesson will be hidden (or shown if they are already hidden)
- If a step is selected, then upon clicking Hide or Show, only that step will be hidden (or shown if it is already hidden)
- All associated assignments and grades for the hidden unit, lesson, or step will also be hidden.
- There are a few caveats to the above behavior, particularly in the following cases:
- If a teacher unhides a lesson and the teacher had previously hidden the encompassing unit, then all lessons in the encompassing unit will also become unhidden, along with all steps within those lessons.
- If a teacher unhides a step and had previously hidden the encompassing lesson or unit, all steps in the encompassing lesson or unit will also become unhidden.
- The “Recent Grades” panel in the student dashboard, the “Needs Grading” panel on the teacher dashboard, the Gradebook, and the Quickgrader will all be updated appropriately to reflect the content that is visible to students in that section
