Quiz Logs Details Question: Multiple questions answered at one time

[JenniferMangan]

I'm wondering what it means when the quiz log says a student answered all these questions at one time.  Is this AI use?  Or an error in the log?  

According to this log the student answered most of the final exam questions within the first few seconds of starting.

Thank you.

For some question types, just opening the quiz triggers the "student answered" message in the log.

Note in the last paragraph of the blue box in How do I view a quiz log for a student? - Instructure Community - 580:

The quiz log may show Fill-in-Multiple-Blanks, Matching, Multiple Answers, and Multiple Dropdown questions as being answered at the beginning of the quiz. This action is generated by the autosave component within Canvas quizzes. If a student clicks to answer another question, the quiz will autosave all the questions and show them as being answered. Because of the autosave behavior, the quiz log does not include an accurate log for Fill-in-Multiple-Blanks, Matching, Multiple Answers, and Multiple Dropdown questions.

It is much better for essay questions, as for those you can see the students typing little by little (unless they copy it all from somewhere else), by clicking the question number in the log.
