What is the best way to do timed free response quiz questions?

I teach AP physics and seeing my student's work is critical.  I gave a "quiz" with a file upload question that required students to upload their work. 

 

First issue - they can only upload a single file.  If they needed a second page, they weren't able to upload it.

Second issue - speed grader makes me download their file instead of just viewing the file in the pane to the left (why thought??).  I graded one student's using the rubric and then she told me she couldn't view the rubric that I clicked through - only the final score.  

I know I can do an assignment, but then I lose the ability to set a timer and provide extended time for students who need extended time.  Timing is critical for quizzing and testing.

 

Is there anyway to solve this using Canvas?  Given all of the other new tools thrown at me and my students, I'd really prefer not to have to use an external tool.
