What @mzimmerman posted on is for classic quizzes. I believe this question has come up before regarding new quizzes, and I believe the answer is that it is not possible in new quizzes. I really don't know for sure because I do not use new quizzes.
for new quizzes, here is a link you can look at: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-moderate-a-student-s-quiz-attempt-in-New-Quizzes/ta-p/655
In the blue box at the top is the following information:
"...Moderation timer settings apply to all attempts for the quiz in which they were set. You can add a specific amount of minutes or hours to each attempt, or remove time limit requirements.

When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
