Quiz time extensions

There are two Canvas setting areas to check when accommodating students who need extra time on a quiz.

• The time and attempts allowed on a quiz can be extended in quiz Moderation.
  However, quiz availability dates still apply when moderating a quiz: If the Available Until date passes when students are taking the quiz with extended time, the quiz auto-submits even if the student’s time extension has not expired.
• The Available Until date/time can be customized for accommodated students.
  This is done in quiz Assign settings.
