D2L
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - Limitations & Work Around
Continuation of Question 4.
There is a limitation within SIS that can allow a student to be removed from your course in SIS, but not in D2L. It has to do with the different ways students can be removed from SIS. If the extra students in the Grade book are a problem we have developed a workaround that allows you to display your Grade book without these extra students.
- Go to Classlist
- Click Manage Groups and Sections
- Click Add Group Type
- For the "Group Type Name:" type in Groups
- In the "Enrollment Style:" drop down menu choose # of Groups - No auto enrollment
- In the "Enrollment Quantity:" box type a 1 (one) or the number of groups you want students separated into
- Click Add
- On the new screen click the enrollment icon
- Check every box for all the students you want to be in the group (either registered or not registered) and at the bottom of the screen click update. If you are unsure of whom the registered students are in your class, you can visit: https://account.arizona.edu/classlist-form.html and view the students who should be in your class
- Go to the Grades tool
- In the "View By:" drop down menu choose Groups
- Let the page automatically refresh and then in the Groups: drop down menu choose the Group 1 or whatever you named your groups
This will only show students that are still in the Sections and you should no longer be distracted by deleted students' names in the Grades tool.
We hope to have our Enrollment processes set up to account for this SIS limitation soon.
