  • You can release a hidden grade to students by selecting “Show” a black open eye
Note: This setting is unrelated to the hide/show function of the assessment itself. Make sure to check that all your gradebook items are in black text so that they are available for viewing by the students.

Hide and Show Quiz Grades in Quiz Settings

Quiz grade visibility is related to the Review Options settings. Quiz grades are only shown once a Quiz has reached a Marks Review point and grades are submitted.

The Quiz Review options defaults are set to show students their Marks and Overall Feedback immediately after the attempt. Full review of questions, what the correct answers are and any specific feedback, is not available until after the Quiz has closed.
