How School Administrators Can Modify Test Deadlines or Close Tests
When weather emergencies or school events occur, having to ask five different teachers to manually extend test deadlines creates delays.
Administrative gridlock during unexpected schedule adjustments
If a sudden school closure occurs and teachers are unavailable, administrators need the power to extend assessment deadlines school-wide.
Manage test administrative parameters directly from the oversight card
Locate the target assessment in the institutional Tests directory.
Click Edit Settings on the test administration panel.
Adjust the closing deadline to grant students additional time.
Alternatively, click 'Close Test' to immediately halt incoming responses.
Put it into practice
Example: Extending an assignment deadline during a storm
An administrator extends the deadline on four Grade 10 unit tests by 24 hours during a power outage, ensuring no student is unfairly penalized.
