Topics items are the content that comprises class topics. An extracurricular activity topic item allows the teacher to add an activity to be performed individually or as a group and delivered as a file for them to grade.
It is possible to deactivate or reactivate an extracurricular activity topic item. As it is deactivated, it is no longer displayed in the class, even if the student has already started it. When a topic item is deactivated or reactivated, the score of the active students, i.e., those who are still taking the subject, is recalculated. The score is recalculated whenever there is any change in the class topic structure. Inactive registrations are not affected. Inactive topic items are not considered in the calculation of grades. However, for the registrations that were completed prior to deactivation, they continue to be considered.
