Grant Extra Time for Timed Assignments

You can grant students extra time for a timed assignment after their allotted time has expired.

Prerequisites: Alternative: Set Accomodations for Timed Assignments

You can't reset or pause the timer for a timed assignment; your student's time remaining for the assignment is always calculated from the time they first opened the assignment in WebAssign.

Automatic due date extensions are not applied to timed assignments, but you can grant a manual extension for the due date.
