The All Results page describes missing student IDs as "null" #1272

Closed jsorva closed 11 months ago

jsorva commented 12 months ago

My Gmail test account now shows up on the "All Results" page as shown below — as do various student accounts. "null" isn’t the best user-facing string. (This is not very important, since it’s only teachers that see this, I presume.)

MOOC students don't have student ids, thus the value is missing. The "All results" table uses the word null in this case, but sure, the word could be changed.

It has been like this for a long time. This is not a new change.

@jsorva would the hyphen "-" be a good replacement for null or should we leave it empty?

Hi! I don’t have strong opinions about this. I’d probably put either a dash, like you suggest, or a string like "none" or "n/a". If you go with a dash, an em dash (—) would be more appropriate than a hyphen.
