Setting default item order on Spreadsheet View

You can set the default order of gradebook item rows in the Spreadsheet View. You may want to set this order, for example, to place a specific item first in the order or to override the order in which the times were created or added to the gradebook.

Until you change it, the default order of items is the order in which you made the items available for students.

To set a different default item order:

  1. Click the course title on the My CourseCompass page.

  2. Click Control Panel from the Course Home page.

  3. Click Online Gradebook under Assessment.

  4. Click Spreadsheet View.

  5. Click Change Item Order at the upper left of the score table.

  6. On the Reorder Gradebook Items page, select or type a different number into an Order box.

Note: You can change the number for a single item, though the numbering will not refresh on the page. When you click Submit, the items will be in the new order. For example, if you type 1 in the Order box for the second item and click Submit, CourseCompass will switch the first and second items.

  1. Click Submit.

    If you enter the same number into more than two boxes, you will be prompted to change the numbers and click Submit again. The gradebook items appear in the Spreadsheet View in the order you selected.

Note: Click Cancel to return to the Spreadsheet View without changing the item order.
