Hello, a parent just told me that some of the questions on a math quiz were not covered in the course material, so when I went to check on the questions and answers that the student put in, it shows two attempts, but it doesn't show the actual questions that the student was given.

Hello, hoping someone can help me with this… I teach grades 3 - 8. Currently, when I sign into Brightspace, it shows all my courses (25 of them) - each subject for each grade gets its own 'course', so when I want to see a student's progress, I have to open each course individually - eg. Science 5, Math 5, etc. and then…
