Saving Progress in a Quiz

[teepee]

Is it possible as a student to save your progress when doing a quiz?
If so, how is this done?

Hi @teepee,

Assuming you have a good internet connection on your device, Canvas will basically autosave as you answer things like multiple choice/true false.  Text/essay answers will also periodically be saved (I think it does that something like every 15 seconds, but not exactly sure of the time).

One thing that will completely mess up this process is if you have the quiz open on two devices at the same time, as they will end up fighting with each other on what to save, so always make sure that you only open a quiz on a single device at a time.

Hope this helps!

My students occasionally struggle with internet quality due to being in remote regions, is there someway to prevent quiz data from being lost in these circumstances?
