How to use the Accommodations tool to provide a student extended time on Quizzes
The Accommodations tool provides the option to grant a student extended time for all existing and future quizzes in a course in D2L. Options using this method include: Additional time to complete quizzes and enabling right-click functions.
NOTE: Using the Accommodations tool will apply the accommodation to all quizzes in the course for that student. If you want to grant special access such as extended time, early or late access, or a different number of attempts on an individual quiz for one or more students, use the Special Access to Quizzes option.
To provide quiz accommodations for a student:
- Go to the classlist in your course in D2L.
- Select the down arrow to the right of the student's name.
- Select Edit Accommodations.
- Choose the accommodations settings appropriate for the student. For extended time, you can enter a multiplier or a set number of minutes.
- Click the Save button.
- Once a student has quiz accommodations assigned, you will see an
icon next to the student's name in the Classlist.
