      There is currently no permission to allow a role, such as non-editing teacher, to view stealth activities.

      Viewing stealth activities is attached to the course:activityvisibility capability, but granting this capability is not desirable as it allows the non-editing teacher to hide any activity in the course. The ability to view hidden (but not stealth) activities can be managed with the course:viewhiddenactivities.
