Schoology - Extending Test/Quiz times for Students with Accomodations

This article will go over the steps required to create Test/Quizzes for students with extended testing time accommodations.
The process for extending time for students with accommodations in Schoology is a multi-part procedure. First Copies of All Test/Quiz items must be saved to your Resources. Second, you must create a new folder (we recommend using “Extended Time”) in the name. Third you must Import the Test/Quiz items into the newly created Folder. Fourth you will have to “Individually Assign” that folder to the accommodations student. Lastly you will have to modify the time allotted in the “Settings Tab” of the Test/Quiz.
Note: You can use this process if you have multiple students in a class with the same extended testing time accommodation requirement.
