quiz time extension

Question

When we have a student with an accommodation, such as extra time on quizzes, it will be for the entire semester. Right now, if a student needs double time on a quiz, I need to manually go into each quiz and double the time for that one student. If there could be a prompt that asks "do you want to double the time for this student on all quizzes?" that would save a lot of time for faculty.

If there is some way to do this, I haven't found it.

Hi there, @kateoneal1 ...

Do you use New Quizzes in Canvas yet?  If so, I found a posting from @Steven_S that I think might help to answer your question.

I just tried this in my own sandbox course by moderating a student's New Quiz to add 1.5x time.  Then, I went into a different New Quiz, and the same 1.5x time was there, too.  You might want to try this out first to confirm it works for you (assuming you have New Quizzes).

If you do not have New Quizzes yet in Canvas, have a conversation with your school's Canvas administrator to see what the plan is for making New Quizzes available to you and your fellow faculty members.

I hope this will be of help to you.
