Canvas Quiz Extensions

  • name: canvas-quiz-extensions
  • ops-run-with: jupyter
  • python>=3.7
  • canvasapi>=2.0.0
  • supports universal environment 🌎

A project that takes input in the form of two CSVs and adds extra time or attempts for students on a list of quizzes. This project is designed for advanced setup, not in-time adjustments during a quiz.

  • Terminal (or Jupyter) will prompt user and generate input .csv templates:
    • Edit input/student_input.csv with a list of students with corresponding extra attempts and time
    • Edit input/quiz_input.csv to specify quizzes to affect
  • Terminal (or Jupyter) will ask for inputs and confirmations
  • Errors will be shown when necessary by the interface, and failed attempts will be logged in /src/log (a log is generated any time the script is run)

⚠️ Important Caveats

  • This script only works with Canvas Classic Quizzes
  • The attempt and time extensions will be overwritten when you run this script (does not add extra attempts or time, replaces them)
  • The script assumes that you want to extend the time and/or attempts for each student for each quiz listed
  • We have not tested the behaviour of this script for non-published or past-due quizzes
  • Does not work to extend time OR attempts if the quiz uses an availability window, for example if the exam is set from 16:00-18:00, and a student is supposed to have an extra 20 minutes, this will not work with no error

Inputs

You will need

  1. Canvas API Token
