2. Any assessment attempts
3. The score for each attempt 
4. The time for each attempt
5. The Student’s attempt log(s)
6. Quiz accommodations (These settings will be applied to all course assessments for this student.)
7. The Moderate button (used to moderate a single attempt or to reopen a most recent attempt. These settings will be applied only to the current quiz.).
   
   Note: If a student has no attempts, areas 2-5 will be blank and only 3 dashes (—) will appear.  Area 6, Quiz Accommodations will say “None” for students without extra time.

Moderate a Single Quiz

Notes:

• Moderation settings apply only to the quiz you are moderating and include reopening quiz attempts and managing timer settings.
• Reopening a student’s quiz reopens a student’s most recent attempt. Previously recorded responses are retained, and the quiz timer resumes from the remaining time from the previous submission.
• 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.
  • Only one timer setting can be selected for each student. 
• Moderation timer settings will not be applied to a quiz attempt that is currently in progress.
• Quiz availability dates still apply when moderating a quiz.
  • If the Until date passes before a student completes an extra attempt or extended-time quiz, any in-progress quizzes auto-submit, and the quiz closes, even if the student’s attempt has not expired.
• Currently, bulk moderation is not supported in New Quizzes.

Open Moderation Settings

Find the student you want to moderate and click the Moderate Button at the end of the row.

1. The Moderate panel displays the number of allowed attempts per the assessment settings.

Add Accommodations for All Quizzes

Notes:

• Accommodation settings include adding or removing time for all quiz attempts and multiplying time limits by a set multiplier.
• Accommodations apply to all quizzes in a course for a student, and only one accommodation can be set per student. Set accommodations can be viewed in the Accommodations column and in the Moderate panel.
• To manage timer settings for a single attempt, you can moderate a student’s quiz attempt.
  • Moderating a quiz attempt will apply any moderation settings on top of any set accommodations.
• Quiz availability dates still apply when moderating a quiz.
  • If the Until date passes before a student completes an extra attempt or extended-time quiz, any in-progress quizzes auto-submit, and the quiz closes, even if the student’s attempt has not expired.
