Question

How do I give a student more time on a timed quiz in the New Quizzes engine?

Answer

Moderation timer settings apply to all attempts for the assessment in which they were set. You can add a specific amount of minutes or hours to each attempt or remove time limit requirements. Only one timer setting can be selected for each student. Moderation timer settings will not be applied to an assessment attempt that is currently in progress. 

Note: Quiz availability dates still apply when moderating a quiz. If the Until date passes before a student completes an extra attempt or extended-time quiz, any in-progress quizzes auto-submit and the quiz closes, even if the student's attempt has not expired. 

  1. Navigate to your Canvas Course
  2. From the course navigation on the left, select Quizzes
  3. Select the name of the quiz
  4. Select Build
  5. Select the Moderate tab. 
  6. Select Moderate next to the student’s name. 
  7. To add additional time to the attempt, select the Give additional time option from the Time Adjustments drop-down menu. Then, select the amount of time by entering hours or minutes in the text boxes or by using the arrow buttons. 
  8. Select Save.
