Overview

By default, assessments stay live for two days from the time they are issued. You can update your default Assessment Expiry Window to give students one day, two days, or three days before an assessment expires. This article will show you how to adjust your default Assessment Expiry Window.

Changing your default Assessment Expiry Window will not affect any past or live quizzes; you must make the adjustment before an assessment is created. Scheduled assessments can be adjusted up until the time they go live for students.  

Step 1: Access Your Preferences

Click your name, and then click Profile. 

Click the Preferences tab. 

Step 2: Select Your  Expiry Window

Scroll down to find the assessment expiry window option, and select your preferred expiry window from the drop-down. Once you've made your selection, be sure to click Save Changes. 

All future quizzes will remain live for this amount of time.

Updating the Expiry Window for One Quiz

You can always adjust the expiry window for a particular quiz when you are creating it. Simply adjust the Valid For field. Doing so here will only affect that particular quiz; it will not change your default time for other quizzes.
