Bb Learn 3400.0.4
Faculty who have tests scheduled for next week (Dec. 10-14) may have students who require additional time in which to take a test, or who can only take a test during a time-frame other than what has been set for the test.
In our current version of Blackboard, the Test Availability Exceptions tool allows you to readily accommodate the needs of such students.
To access the Test Availability Exceptions tool, select Edit Test Options for the test in which you need to make one or more test availability exceptions (How do I edit the Test Options?). In the Test Options window that opens, scroll down to the section on TEST AVAILABILITY EXCEPTIONS, and select the Add User or Group button:
In the Add User or Group window that opens, select the check-box for any student for whom you need to make a test availability exception, and then select Submit:
In the Test Availability Exceptions window, you will now see a list of the student(s) for whom you wish to create test availability exceptions. You can use the Attempts control to change the number of attempts that the student(s) may make on the test, while the Timer control allows you to change the amount of time available to the student(s) for taking the test:
Finally, you can use the Availability control to change the Display After and Display Until dates/times during which the test is available to the students:
Once you’ve set the test availability exceptions for your test, select the Submit button to save those exceptions and exit the Test Options window.
