Question-level settings

Timed questions

Select Timed questions to set a time limit, in minutes, for students to answer a specific question. After the time limit passes, the test automatically advances to the next question.

  • When a test or quiz has at least one question with a time limit, students cannot review questions before they submit. If students click the browser’s Back button to return to the timed question after the time limit has passed, they will be forced to start over or submit the test or quiz prematurely.

  • If the last question of a test is timed, the test is automatically submitted after the time runs out.

Selecting Timed question when creating the question automatically formats the test or quiz for one question per page.

Show feedback

Select Show feedback to incorporate automated feedback or provide explanations to students about the correct and incorrect answers for each question after they submit a test or quiz.

Set View Submissions to Yes in the test or quiz settings so students can review your feedback.

Subjective questions

You can mark matching and true-or-false question types as subjective. While the course administrator indicates the correct answer, subjective questions are not graded automatically. Instead, they must be manually scored before the student’s final grade is calculated.

The subjective setting does not prevent the correct answer from displaying.

  • When a student answers a subjective question incorrectly and the View Submissions setting is enabled, a green or red indicator will display when they review their answer. However, Pending review will display instead of a score.
