Sakai test & quizzes exam time limits
Sakai test & quizzes exam time limitsWhen using Sakai’s Tests & Quizzes tool for your exam, it is important to set the Time Limit to match the duration you have communicated to your students. We recommend setting the availability period to be open a few minutes before the officially scheduled opening time and remain open a few minutes after the fixed duration. Documentation on this process is available online.
We also recommend giving students the opportunity to practice the assessment format and other strategies for minimizing examination issues.
