Quiz Timing Improvements

New "Quiz Timing Improvements"

new Quiz Timing Improvements - released in MSU's Brightspace Learning Environment - July 2023

D2L has updated the quiz creation and quiz taking experiences to simplify existing workflows and add useful new quiz timing options.

  • Quiz Timing Improvements & Auto-submission – The changes include auto-submission, simpler quiz setup, and the removal of obsolete quiz timing options (such as the grace period).
  • Quiz Taking Improvements – Improvements to the Quiz taking experience including show/hide quiz timer and improvements to the Quiz results view.
  • Synchronous Quizzes – Expanding from asynchronous quizzes to supporting both asynchronous and synchronous quizzes.
    • The new addition of synchronous quizzes enables instructors to set up a quiz where the quiz timer starts on the start date for all learners rather than when the learner launches the quiz (asynchronous).
    • The quiz timer can also be set to end for all learners at the same time.
