Introduction:
In Brightspace, accommodations can be set at the course level from the Classlist and/or on a quiz-by-quiz basis in the Quiz tool. For quizzes and assignments, accommodations can be set using the Special Access feature in your quiz/assignment settings.
Note: Accommodation settings configured in the Classlist will automatically be applied to all quizzes for the selected student(s). If you set a course-level accommodation, the modified time limit will automatically be applied to all quizzes in the course. If you need to adjust the due date, availability dates (start date/end date), or number of attempts, you must manually set a Special Access accommodation for each quiz.
Setting Accommodations:
- Setting Accommodations for all Quizzes from the Classlist – From the Classlist, you can set an accommodation that will apply to all quizzes in the course. Setting accommodations at the Classlist level will ensure that the accommodation is applied to all quizzes in the course.
- Setting Accommodations for a Specific Quiz – From the Quiz tool, you can set a Special Access accommodation for a specific student that will apply to a specific quiz in the course. You might use this feature to adjust quiz settings for one particular student who needs quiz flexibility.
- Setting Accommodations for an Assignment – From the assignment tool, you can set a Special Access accommodation that will apply to a specific assignment in the course.
