Thanks for your question! The access code function allows the instructor to set a specific code students must enter to be able to take the quiz. If you are using Quizzes, please check out What options can I set in a quiz? for more details.

Is there a way to set individual access codes? Having a single access code for the entire class allows students to share the code, which defeats the purpose of having an access code. Does anyone know of a good work around?
You set the code, then distribute that code, however works for you, to your students. When your students attempt the quiz, they are asked to provide the code.
@Pfedorch unfortunately no. It blocks access to taking the quiz, not reviewing. Once a student has submitted their quiz, the feedback settings are what restricts students from viewing the results which do not have a way to allow some students access and block others.
@ShreyaBanerjeeI am not sure what your role is but the teacher creates the code so it is whatever the teacher created. If you are the teacher, it is whatever code/word you entered in the box. You can also change it at any time.
