To delete an item from your gradebook in Brightspace, you must delete it in two separate places including the item's association in assignments, quizzes, etc., and in the gradebook itself.
- In this example, a homework assignment named "Sample Homework" will be deleted. To verify if a gradebook item is associated with anything, click Grades from the navbar of your course, then click Manage Grades. "Sample Homework" is associated with Assignments.
- Next, click Content from the navbar. Locate the unit the item is under, then click on the three horizontal dots for more options. From the drop-down menu, click Delete.
- Select Permanently delete both the topic from Content and the associated file or activity from the course, otherwise, you will not be able to delete the item from the gradebook.
- You will receive an on-screen confirmation message that the topic was deleted.
- Once you have deleted the association, click Grades from the navbar, then click the Manage Grades tab. The association is now removed, and the item can be deleted from the gradebook. Click the More Actions button, then click Delete.
- Select the item by clicking on the check box to the left of the item name, then click the Delete button.
- Confirm the item deletion by clicking the Delete button.
- You will receive an on-screen deletion confirmation.
- The "Sample Homework" item is no longer in the gradebook.
