[samigo-team] Extra Time Accommodation for Timed Quiz?

[Ramachandran,Narasi]

When you duplicate the quiz for special needs students make sure that the new quiz grades are not sent to the gradebook as this would be counted towards the total points. You can manually override the score in the main quiz. You may also want to leverage the groups function so as to minimize confusion between the 2 quizzes.
This feature is available in Mneme and would be be great if this can be brought into Samigo in the near future.
Cheers,
Narasi

Hi David,

I am afraid this is not achievable in current Samigo... The only workaround I can think of is copying the assessment and set a longer time for this student.

Thanks,
Karen

Hello,

I received the following question from a faculty member:

"I have a series of timed quizzes that students take on Sakai throughout the semester, each with a two-day window so students have flexibility as to when and where they actually take it. I have a student with a documented learning disability who requires more time to take the quiz and I'm not sure how to accommodate that in Sakai. In Blackboard, students who went overtime had the score "flagged" so I could adjust there score if necessary or ignore the overtime if they were to receive an accommodation. I think Sakai terminates the quiz after the designated time limit. So, how do I accommodate a student who needs more time than the rest of the class on a timed quiz/test?"

Is there a way to allow additional time for an individual student? At Miami, students may be accommodated with 1.5X or 2X the normal time for assessments. We are using SAMigo 2.8.

Thank you,
Dave
