[ARCHIVED] Is it possible to assign a "new quiz" to the test student so I can see the graded result in "grades"?

[nancym]

I want to learn what students see when I release their grades.  In the original quiz, there was a setting for allow students to see their answers only once or to release answers at a given time.  I do not see anything like this in new quizzes.  

The deed is done, I have already given the exam in "new quiz" but I need to release the grades and have no idea what they will see.  I have read through the settings on restrict student view (see their points, points possible, answers, comments, etc. )  I have looked at the FAQS  (How do I manage settings for an assessment in New Quizzes?)

and found nothing that answers the question of whether we can release the answers and comments to be seen once or anything about the absence of the test student in the list of persons who can be given assignment.  

Also, Canvas, could you come up with a new name for "new quizzes" so that we can search the community and not get information about the original quizzes?!  

Thanks,

Nancy

Hi Nancy.

The features you are seeking have actually been improved in New Quizzes.  

How do I manage settings for an assessment in New Quizzes?  
the setting you're looking for is "restrict student result view"

This section of the Instructor Guide may be helpful when you're looking for New Quiz information.  It's what I tend to use most.  Also, great note about the name.  What to call this thing has evolved a lot.  It had some other names in the past but most recently has been coined New Quizzes as it nears becoming just Quizzes and the old tool set goes away.

User Group: New Quizzes‌ can better show that timeline!

Thanks Renee.  

I read through these and think I understand the options I can see.  The only way I can figure out how to allow students to see their exams and answers, but not have it open indefinitely, is to manually open and close access.  Today in class I opened the exam problems to be viewed and then closed it after 5 min.  Is there a better way?  There are options about what can be seen, but not a timing mechanism (let students see answers once, or some such thing).     

Nothing I could find in the documentation mentions assigning a quiz to the test student, however, I would still like to be able to assign a quiz or assignment to someone in a TA role or the test student.   The TA and test student are not in the list of persons who can be given an assignment.   I want to open the quiz to just me as test student, or the TA under his own name, at an earlier or later time.   Is this possible?

Thanks again, 

Nancy

I thought there was a feature idea for the timing element already.  I may have missed it.  There is https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/15098-new-quizzes-better-control-to-restrict-student-viewing-o... that you may be interested in.  But you are correct that right now you have to control it through the access dates. 

Makes sense that it wouldn't be assignable to the test student because the test student is not a true role.  The TA I'm guessing has limited and advanced settings in the course and the engine is smart enough to know that you wouldn't be assigning a quiz to a TA.  

It's not the ideal setup, but sometimes I used to set up 'fake students' for instructors that they could enroll and unenroll from a course to test more advanced things.  This may be something your admin allows you to do if you ask?

Thanks Renee.  I will give it a try.
