Adding an Override to a Quiz Activity

Last Update 2 months ago

Instructors may wish to give individual learners or groups of learners different amounts of time for a Quiz, or allow them to do the Quiz at a different time. This can also be used to allow extra attempts for specific people. These Overrides can be made even after the Quiz has been attempted or the original time has passed.

User Overrides

1. Click on the Quiz.

2. On the Actions Menu to the top right, choose Group Overrides or User Overrides.

Note: To use Group Overrides, see the Group Overrides section below.

3. For individual users, click on the Add user override button to add an Override.

4. Select the learner who needs the Override by typing his/her name in the Search box, or by selecting a name using the drop-down menu arrow.

Note: The settings will display as they are for the Quiz in general. Change them as required for the Override. For Open the quiz, Close the quiz, or Time limit, you must click the Enable checkbox in order to Override the setting.
