Some background.

I have a tutor who has been allocated the teacher role on a course. But when they go to mark via speedgrader they are constatly getting an popup error stating -

Sorry, there are either no active students in the course or none gradable by you.

So, my thinking was if your a tutor on the whole course is that they should be able to see and select any of the sections in speedgrader, assuming that the section had been assigned to the assignment.

But no, I had to explicitly assign the tutor to the section to allow them to mark.

In other courses the tutor are just assigned the teacher role and they are able to see the sections in speedgrader.

Is there a setting that I'm missing that can be set to over come this issue?
