[Classic Quizzes] Course-wide Quiz moderation for a student

[brownd85]

Problem statement:

With more students coming into classes with accommodations such as extended quiz/test-taking time, I find that I am increasingly having to individually moderate all of my quizzes to provide the extra time to students with this accommodation. Under the current system, if I have a class with 20 quizzes, I have to go to and moderate each of those 20 quizzes for the student(s) with such accommodations.

Proposed solution:

It would be very helpful to be able to enter the accommodation just once for each student and have it applied to all quizzes in the course. For example, if I could attach a time limit moderation factor of 1.5x on a particular student's record within the course, that student would then receive 50% additional time on each quiz they complete in my course. Similarly, I could specify 1 additional attempt at the student level and that student would have an extra quiz attempt on all the course's quizzes. The ability to enter such quiz moderations once per student to apply to all quizzes would save considerable time over entering such moderations on each individual quiz.

Hi @brownd85 -

Thank you for sharing this idea!

It sounds like you are using Classic Quizzes. As our product teams are no longer developing new functionality on the code base for Old (Classic) Quizzes, we've moved this idea to the Will Not Consider Status.

However, I'm happy to share with New Quizzes, the ability to add course-wide accommodations is a supported feature! 

How do I add accommodations for a student in New Quizzes? 

The resources in the New Quizzes Hub should help you get started with using the new quiz tool in your courses. If you don't see the ability to enable New Quizzes in the settings area of one of your courses, please reach out to your local Canvas admin for information about its availability at your school.
