New: Quiz Due Dates

To improve the consistency of dates across tools in BOLT, due dates are available for quizzes.


This allows instructors to better communicate when quizzes are due, and better identify when a learner submits a quiz late. This change impacts when quizzes are marked as late.




A quiz is now considered late if it is submitted after the due date is reached.




Previously, ‘late’ referred to attempts submitted after the time limit of an ‘enforced time limit’ quiz was exceeded.




Quizzes submitted after the due date are labeled ‘submitted late’. Quizzes submitted after the time limit is reached are now labeled as ‘exceeded time limit’.

Did you know… when you assign a grace period on quizzes students do not see it onscreen?

When you assign a grace period on quizzes students do not see it onscreen.


Students actually see: TIME EXCEEDED. There is no visual indication they are within a grace period!


Our recommendation is to enter the total time for the Time Limit, and 1 for the Grace Period:
