Filtering the Gradebook

The Ultra Gradebook has filtering features which allow users to filter their gradebook view by multiple variables, such as individual users, groups, items, and categories. You can also filter the Gradebook to only show students on merged courses. This offers more flexibility for users wanting to get a focused view of their Gradebook.

Applied filters can also be bookmarked and referred to again at a later date.

Sharing filter views

You can use filtering to create a custom view of the Gradebook which can then be shared with others. Simply set-up your filters and copy paste the unique URL that is created.

The URL will open the Gradebook with the filters you have selected. If any changes have been made to the category an assessment has been assigned this change will be reflected in the view of the Gradebook generated by the filter.
