How do I allow students to resume New Quizzes between sessions?

I'm using New Quizzes to collect student responses throughout a project that runs over several weeks.

Up until recently New Quizzes would automatically store student responses between sessions, allowing them to answer different questions at different times throughout the project prior to submission at the end of the project.

This feature seems to no longer be enabled by default.

Is there any way to reenable this feature?

My quiz settings are set to allow to build on last attempt, allow multiple attempts, and have no time limit.

Hello @heath_freeland,

Are the students entering answers and then clicking the Submit button each session or are they utilizing the auto-save feature that occurs while taking a quiz? I imagine they are submitting each time if you have build on last attempt and allow multiple attempts on, but want to check for sure. If they are submitting each time, are the questions on the quiz auto-graded questions or do they include file upload and/or essay questions (manually graded)? If they are manually graded questions, they will need to be marked as correct in order for those answers to be retained for subsequent attempts. There is more about this here.

Regards,

James

Could "Timeline Visualization" be the Key to Improving the Student Calendar?
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added.

Better Submit Button UI to prevent accidental Submits Message
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
