[New Quizzes] Include availability dates to review feedback
As I understand it, “New Quizzes” in Canvas is NOT designed to allow students to receive feedback on an essay exam with LockDown Browser. (This functionality is apparently present in Classic Quizzes in Canvas.) This lack of functionality (not being able to provide students with feedback on essay exams without going in and changing LockDown Browser to have new availability dates) is a MAJOR DESIGN FLAW, in my opinion. How can students learn from/improve in taking essay exams if they are not able to see feedback from the instructor? How, then, would an instructor provide feedback to each student? Multiple choice exams provide students with feedback (letting them know which answers are the correct ones). The “New Quizzes” in Canvas MUST be designed in such a way that it is easy to provide students feedback with LockDown Browser on essay exams!
It would seem to be a very simple fix to designate a window of time for taking the (essay) exam and then add have an option that indicates a (second) time period for viewing exam results and seeing the instructor feedback. It is clumsy to make the instructor have to go back and edit the exam options to change the availability date (from the time the exam is to be taken to a new date for when it can be reviewed).
