Granting Special Considerations for Oral Assessment

To change a student's assessment dates, adjust their total assessment duration, grant extra attempts, or add extra preparation and response time, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Progress tab. Find the student who needs special considerations in the class list.
  2. Click on the three dots to the right. Select between options: Give extra time, Give extra time or attempts (per question), and Change assessment window.

  3. This opens the special considerations panel, where the below can be adjusted:

    • Assessment open and close dates and times: Change when the student's assessment opens and closes.
    • Total exam time: Adjust the overall time the student has to complete the assessment. This replaces the default total time rather than adding to it.
      • For example: If a student has already used 7 minutes of a 17-minute assessment and needs 10 more minutes to finish their remaining attempts, set their Total exam time to 17 minutes (their elapsed time + the time they still need) — not 10 minutes, which would leave them only 10 minutes in total and cut their session short.
      • Under Video Response Questions sections, the followings can also be adjusted:
        • Extra attempts per question: Grant additional attempts on each question.
        • Extra preparation time per question: Add time on top of the default preparation time for each question.
        • Extra response time per question: Add time on top of the default response time for each question.
  4. Once the adjustments are made, click Confirm to save.

 

NOTE: It is important to allocate appropriate total exam time when granting extra attempts to a student. If a student is granted extra attempts, but has exhausted the assessment duration, the student will not be able to access oral assessment for re-takes.

NOTE: Extra preparation and response time are added on top of the default. For example, if a student is granted 15 seconds of extra preparation on a question with a 30-second default, they will have 45 seconds to prepare for that question.
