Combined classes, how to have graded discussion boards

Question

Hi,

I combined two sections of my course, which was super easy to do. I have a few discussion boards and it's easy to separate the discussion boards by section, but there isn't an option to grade the discussion boards if they are separated by section.

My class is small and students get to know each other so I prefer to keep the discussion boards separate. Does anyone know a work around?

Thank you,

Patty Corrigan

Both the Grades page and the SpeedGrader can be filtered to show only one section at a time. Here are documents from the Canvas Guides showing how:

* How do I filter columns and rows in the Gradebook? #View Sections
* How do I use the student list to view student submissions in SpeedGrader? #View Sections

Thanks for that clarification. In that case you'll need to create a separate discussion for each section. Luckily there's a Canvas Guides document explaining how:
