Set Up a Password (5)

You can add a password to the quiz and share it with your students when you decide. This option allows you to secure the quiz with additional optional advanced restrictions.

Special Access

Special access permissions allow you to set different availability dates and times for specific users. For example, you could extend the deadline for users who require remedial help or who are taking the quiz beyond the original scope of the quiz. You can also add special access after a quiz’s end date has passed for users who have a legitimate excuse for missing the deadline.
