Allowing students to go past the time limit on a Quiz

[tgrochowski]

Hi, 

Right now, as far as I can see, if I set a time limit for a quiz in Canvas, then once the time comes up, they are done.  I would like students to be allowed to go past the time. Blackboard had a setting where students were notified that they have gone beyond the time limit but allowed them to keep working, then when I reviewed the quiz afterward, I could see how far over the time limit each student went, if anyone did. I don't have a problem with a student taking an extra minute or two on a quiz. Is there a setting? I'm using "New Quizzes."

In the moderate page of the New Quiz, you can adjust timer settings to add more time, but it's not automatic as the student takes longer:  How do I moderate a student's quiz attempt in New ... - Instructure Community - 655

Generally, if you want to allow students to go beyond a given time limit for an extra minute or two on Canvas, you have to extend that time limit by a minute or two.

As far as I can tell, what you want is not feasible on Canvas, but you could suggest it as a new feature: How do I create a new idea in the Instructure Comm... - Instructure Community - 2986
