In Brightspace, columns are created on the Grades page that are connected to assessments within a course. If you want to delete an item, what Brightspace calls a grade column, you must first delete the assessment itself. Once you delete the assessment, please follow the below steps to delete the item/column for that assessment in Grades.

Accessing Grades 

  1. In your course, select Grades from the course nav bar. Depending on your course nav bar set up, you might need to select the More drop-down menu.

Note: If you cannot select the box, this means that the assessment is still within the course. Check the area where the assessment would reside and delete it there.
