Single attempt assignments

Single attempt assignments

Single attempt assignments limit video submissions to only one attempt per student.  Videos are automatically submitted when a student is done recording.

2. Check the box next to "Single recording attempt (test)."
3. Optionally, check the box next to "Time limit" and enter a time limit.
   
   

   

Single attempt assignment rules

If this option is enabled on an assignment, it enforces the following rules:

• Students can only record videos, not upload.
• Students cannot pause their recordings.
• Stimulus media and any recording instructions (if applicable) cannot be previewed from the dashboard.  These will become available when the student begins the attempt.
• If a time limit is entered, the recording will end automatically when the time limit is reached.  Students will be prompted with countdown warnings as they approach the time limit.
• Students are allowed only one attempt and one submission.
• Students cannot delete their submission, only the instructor can.

Blank submissions

If a student runs into technical difficulties during their recording and they end up with a blank submission, these will show as a black thumbnail on the dashboard.

If this happens, simply click "Allow Retake" to delete their first attempt and allow them to try again.
