The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
I'd like my students to be able to use past quizzes as study material and exam prep, but my students have noted the following:
1. If I put in an end date for quiz availability, it "disappears" from the students' view
2. If I make a quiz available indefinitely, when a student goes back to review it, they basically end up re-taking the quiz, which then gets marked as "late." I didn't set up any penalties for "late" quizzes, so it doesn't seem to actually affect their grade, but I still get a lot of panicked emails.
Is there an easy way to "lock" a quiz after the due date so students can still see and review the questions but they can't actually re-take it? I guess I could always just upload a separate file with all the quiz questions, but I'm looking for a more elegant solution. I should add I'm using the classic "Quizzes" function, not "New Quizzes"
Thanks!
