Quiz viewing after due date

[susanstirrup]

Hello! I am wondering if there is a way for students to view a quiz after the due date if they did not take the quiz. I currently have the settings such that there is a start date and an end date (available until). Students that take the quiz can access their responses and the quiz itself, but students that miss the window of opportunity are unable to view the quiz and use as a study tool.

Thank you!

Hi @susanstirrup 

After the test is no longer available to take, what students are really viewing are the results and feedback for their submission--similar to what you see in Speedgrader.  If they have not made a submission, there is nothing for them to see.  So no, there is not really a way for students to view questions from a test that they didn't take.

Is there a way to submit a request to Instructure to add this capability, do you know? I'd like students to be able to see the questions at least as a study aid for exams - even if they missed actually taking the quiz.

Thank you!

Hi @LAS108 ...

One way to suggest enhancements and new features to Instructure (the folks that make Canvas) is to submit your ideas over in this part of the Community website:

Canvas Ideas - Instructure Community

However, the entire idea submission process is going through some changes right now.  I don't know exactly when the new process will be in place, but you can read more about this at:

Turning Your Feedback into Better Prioritization a... - Instructure Community - 637959

There are other Guides here in the Community that can help with the idea creation process:

• What is the feature development process for Instructure products?
• How do Ideas work in the Instructure Community?
• What are the guidelines for submitting a new idea?
• How do I create a new idea in the Instructure Community?

You may also find that an existing idea has already been submitted by another user.  In that case, you wouldn't need to submit one of your own...so as to avoid duplicate ideas here in the Community.

I hope that these links will be of some help to you.  Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!

@mzimmerman Thank you for this response. This is what I was thinking too. I think my work around will be to replicate the quizzes as practice quizzes that open after the due date so that all have the opportunity to view and learn from them, regardless if they made the deadline or not.
