Bypassing an Activity from the Gradebook

Use this page to learn how to bypass an activity via the Gradebook.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Is there a way to bypass non-current activities?

Yes, only in the Gradebook can an educator bypass a non-current activity for a student.

Does bypassing an activity lock the activity?

No. Bypassing the activity does not lock it, it just labels it as "Not Required," "Tested Out," or "Pretest Required," depending on the reason for the bypass. Students can still access and complete a bypassed activity from their Course Map. A grade will not display on the Course Map or on the progress report.
