Even clicking on the highlighted number leaves a message "un-read"?
It seems crazy that even after I read messages in the Discussion board they remain marked as UNREAD unless I click on each one individually and open it. It takes like three clicks to get rid of a notification for a message I've already read. Am I doing something wrong? Or is the Discussion board work-flow designed for…

SCORM MC question grades not consistently being recorded in gradebook
I am using SCORM questions embedded in my lectures for the first time. Grades are being recorded inconsistently - some students have no problems with any of the lectures, whereas others are receiving grades for some but not all lectures.

I set up attendance for my course sections. Is there a way to automate the attendance process?
I have about 50 students in each section and it would take an inordinate amount of time to manually take attendance each class session if there is no way to automate this process.
