Is there a way to moderate all quizzes for a given student at once? I have multiple students with accommodations requiring extra time on quizzes. I know I can go into each quiz individually and moderate that quiz for each student, but I would like to do this all at once. For instance, tell Canvas that Lisa Jones needs 15 extra minutes on all quizzes. With two classes, each with 11 quizzes, this would be an immense help.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks to everyone who has participated in this post. Several years ago, Canvas developed the ability to provide assessment accommodations for a single student across all quizzes with the release into general availability of New Quizzes. How do I use the Moderation page in New Quizzes? and How do I add assessment accommodations for a student in New Quizzes? provide detailed instructions.
@ann_culligan , at this writing, it is not possible to extend times for a single student across all quizzes. However, this feature is definitely on Instructure's radar. Please refer to While the idea is currently archived, the feedback from the product team implies that its eventual implementation is likely.
Thanks Stefanie! I figured, but couldn't seem to find a thread mentioning it. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Has there been any movement on this?
Seriously. This was back in 2016 and still no solution? Many of us have multiple quizzes (dozens) in multiple courses with multiple students needing accommodations. There needs to be a way to set accommodations globally for each student.
I agree. There should be a way to moderate all quizzes for a student who receives extra time as an accomodation. Please consider adding this feature.
