There may be times when you need to grant students additional time while they’re taking an assessment. New Quizzes allows you to do this through the Moderate tab.
You can give additional time on a single quiz or for all quizzes in the course.
Additional instructions are included for the use of the “available until” assignment setting.
Tip! You can click on the images in this article to see them larger and with more detail.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
To begin, locate the assessment in Quizzes, click the assessment title, and select Build.
Click the Moderate tab.
If you are adding an accommodation for a single quiz.
On the Moderate page, click on the pencil to the right of the student’s name to whom you want to give additional time.
A panel will slide open from the right.
Select Time adjustments, then select how much additional time you want to give the student to complete the assessment.
Then click apply.
If you are adding an accommodation for all quizzes in the course:
On the Moderate page, click the student’s name
A window will open that gives you options for time adjustment. Most often, you will choose Time Multiplier and give the student the extension indicated by the Office of Accommodation.
Click Save
Once you click Apply or Save, you will see the additional time that has been added to the student’s assessment.
The student will also receive a message at the top of their screen informing them that they have been given additional time to complete the assessment.
Availability Constraints
If you limit the availability of your quiz to the duration of the quiz. For example, if the quiz is 90 minutes, and the quiz is only available for that 90 minutes, you will need to add an additional Assign To block for the accommodated students.
Assigned Time Example
In this example, the class is given 90 minutes to complete a quiz - 9:00-10:30. The student with accommodations needs twice that time. You will need to add an additional Assign To block that provides the additional time in the Available Until setting - 9:00-12:30
