    Disabling Class Activities


    Article summary

    You can control when and if students have access to Class Activities, including labs, external links (video, document and/or website), Assessments and SCORM modules (Note: Surveys cannot be disabled).

    Instructors can enable or disable any activity in classes they are assigned to teach, and Operations managers can disable activities in classes they manage. Enabling or disabling an activity applies that setting for all students in the class.

    disable class activities

    All class activities are enabled by default. Instructors and Operations managers have a check box on each activity to disable or re-enable it; there is also a select all check box at the top of the activities list.

    The ability to disable activities must be enabled on the course or you will not see the check boxes in the class. For more information, click here.

    Simply uncheck the Enabled box to disable the activity or check it again to re-enable it. Students see the activity’s availability within 30 seconds. You can also check the Disable all activities box to disable all activities in the class.

    uncheck enabled box

    Students have a Launch button for all enabled activities. Disabled activities appear slightly grayed out with a Disabled by Instructor message for students and the Launch button is not available.

    Please Note
    If a course is set to Allow activities to be auto enabled after a class ends, any activities that were disabled when class ends still show as disabled in the class to instructors or administrators but will be enabled for the students on their enrollments.
