Improve instructor experience for PL assignments that are manually hidden/shown to students

[firasm]

Hopefully this isn't an x-y problem, but because there currently isn't a way to hide questions that are being manually graded, I have set up my assessments to be hidden after students complete them (until I'm done manually grading them).

"showClosedAssessment": false,
"showClosedAssessmentScore": false,

Then I have to remember to set the flags below to true and if I forget, the scores and feedback aren't shown to students.

Student view (assessments closed, scores not visible)

I know this is totally my responsibility to check and verify, but I wish there was an easy way to see which assessments were currently active, score was visible to students, and assessment open for viewing.

Something like this (note this is just a mockup)?

Mockup of Instructor view

Unfortunately, I can already see complications with this because of how access rules are constructed in PrairieLearn - we'd have to somehow look at "the most general" rule (maybe one that doesn't have UIDs listed?) that is "currently active based on the current time".

Happy to flesh this out in a bit more detail if there is interest and appetite for something like this.

Like #6860?

Yes, exactly ! In this discussion I was trying to think of what the interface of this would look like.

I agree this is related to Manual Grading, but I think it would also be helpful for other assessment types as well (tests you don't want to release etc...).
