Grade Questions Using Timer

Created by Ajith Pawar, Modified on Fri, 22 Aug at 2:16 AM by Ajith Pawar

You can grade questions using the timer, too. The timer awards points on the basis of accuracy and speed. The default timer is enabled on all sessions. 

  1. 1. Default Timer: This option displays a visible countdown timer, but answers can be submitted even after the timer runs out. A score of 600 is awarded for answering a question correctly. An additional score of 0-400 is awarded based on how quickly students answer. Wrong answers are marked zero, regardless of the time taken to answer.
  2. 2. Test Timer: This option displays a visible countdown timer, and answers cannot be submitted after the timer runs out. A question is 'timed out' if students exceed the time limit in answering a question. Timed-out questions are marked zero. A score of 600 is awarded for correct answers. 
  3. 3. Timer Off: This option disables the timer. A student is awarded a score of 600 for the right answer and 0 for the wrong answer, regardless of their speed.

Note: Incorrect answers and 'timed out' questions always get 0 points.
