Assignment Setup and Controls

You can set Grades Accepted Until dates for Online Quiz assignments. After a Grades Accepted Until date for an assignment passes, students can continue to complete the Online Quiz assignments but they can no longer improve their final grades for that assignment.

Here’s how to set up Grades Accepted Until dates:

Select a Student Set in the Select a Student Set drop-down menu.

Click [set] across from the assignment.

Select a Grades Accepted Until date and click the Set Grades Accepted Until button. The first time you set a GAU, you'll be asked to choose your time zone. The next time you create a GAU, your time zone will be automatically selected.

Note: If you’re using the Student Grades grid to track average NOQE grades, only assignments with Grades Accepted Until dates will count toward NOQE averages. In other words, if you're using NOQE for a grade, set Grades Accepted Until dates for all assignments you're asking students to complete!

Questions cannot be modified in Online Quiz assignments.
