Is there a way to color code the classification of assignment categories:
Homework-Blue
Classwork-Green
Tests- Red
Quizzes- Orange
To see the different categories in the grade book? I know we can see for late, resubmission, etc.
Thanks,
I have never seen an option for that (instructional designer here).
Something like that might also not be accessible or up to WCAG 2.2 standards. Those with colorblindness likely wouldn't be able to tell the difference between classwork/tests/quizzes.
Though I could see an icon in the assignment title in gradebook being potentially useful.
Just my 2 cents!
Best,

Hi @TerriSchmidt ...
As @KyleighBecker mentioned, there is no option for color. However, when you are editing the title of a module, you can right-click with your mouse and then select the "Emoji" option (or whatever is similar on your browser of choice), and as Kyleigh has suggested, you could add icons to your module title to distinguish one from another.
I hope this will be of some help to you. Good luck!

Searching through 'All Pages' can be cumbersome, especially as the year goes on. Is there going to be a folders feature added so that pages can be sorted and categorized, similar to how documents and images can fall under different umbrellas?
For those of you who use the Learning Mastery Gradebook in your courses, what are your thoughts about the updates? Do they improve your understanding of students' outcome mastery? What about the interface? The old version certainly needed some improvements. I did like the pie charts, however. Hovering the mouse pointer…

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
