  1. Navigate to the quiz or exam.
  2. Click on the name to see the details.
  3. Click the 'Moderate this Quiz' option.
  4. Locate the student. If setting the same accommodations for multiple students, click the check box next to each student

"New" Quizzes

'New Quizzes' is a redesign of the quiz functionality in Canvas.  One benefit it has over Classic Quizzes is the ability to set accommodations for a student across all assigned quizzes, instead of each individual quiz. See the demonstration video and step-by-step instructions in the New Quizzes Instructor Guide.
