How do I use the Leaderboard in Badges as an instructor?
The leaderboard in a group allows students to see their ranking in a course. You can enable the leaderboard in order to set leaderboard points for badges in the Group.
Open Leaderboard
In the Group setup drop-down menu [1], click the Leaderboard link [2].
Manage Leaderboard Options
To enable the leaderboard to show for learners and staff, click the Display leaderboard to learners and staff checkbox [1].
To have learners use aliases, click the Use aliases instead of learners name on the leaderboard checkbox [2].
To allow learners to share their real name, click the Allow learners to share their real names checkbox [3].
To save changes, click the Save changes button [4].
Note: In order to view the settings for displaying learners' names or an alias, you must click the Display leaderboard to learners and staff checkbox.
View Leaderboard
Learner progress shows in a table format and displays an overview of learner badges in a group.
To search for a learner, type their name in the Search learner field [1].
You can view and sort by the rank [2], learners name [3], total points [4], and badge completion [5].
To view a learner's completion status and pathway progress, click the Details link [5].
To manage options, click the Edit options button [6].
Note: Inactive and pending users are automatically filtered out from key views, such as group member lists and leaderboards, and no longer retain group-based privileges within the standalone platform. These changes are consistent with user enrollment statuses (active, inactive, deleted, concluded) as reflected on the Canvas People page."
