[Gradebook] Create a Reply Link to Discussion Postings in the Canvas Gradebook

[HVLNAdmin]

Problem statement:

Currently, instructors are unable to reply to a student's discussion posting in grade book view. Instead, they have to go back to the discussion activity, scroll through the list of postings to find the desired student entry, and then reply to the post there.

Proposed solution:

Create a feature that would allow the instructor to reply to a student's discussion posting while in the gradebook view. This would save the instructor time in having to go back to the discussion activity, scroll through the list of postings to find the desired student entry, and then reply to the post there.

User role(s):

instructor
