These settings apply when students take the assessment in Uflo. Paper assessments and assessments imported from an LMS collect responses outside Uflo.
Open the Settings
The settings live in the Assessment form, below the title and instructions.1

Change the Settings and Submit
Scroll to the settings you want to change. Select Submit at the bottom of the form to save them.
Due Date, Attempts, and Time Limit
These three settings under Due Date and Attempts control when students can work and for how long.
Students get two 60-minute attempts before October 10.
Students must submit an attempt before they can start another.When an Attempt Ends
An attempt ends at the time limit or the due date, whichever comes first. A student who starts close to the due date gets less time.
With a 60-minute limit, starting 20 minutes before the due date leaves 20 minutes to answer.
What happens next depends on the time limit:- With a time limit, Uflo submits the attempt with the responses saved so far. If the student has left the assessment, this happens when they next open it.
- Without a time limit, responses lock at the due date, but the attempt stays open. The student still needs to select Submit Entire Assignment.
Due Date and Lesson Dates
The due date is separate from the assessment’s lesson dates, which decide when students can open it. Manage Lessons covers lesson dates. After the due date, students can still open the assessment to review it, until its second lesson date.
Students can review a quiz after its due date until the lesson closes.
For a paper exam or an LMS assessment, keep it hidden while you grade and set a due date that has passed. Otherwise, students with attempts left can start it in Uflo.Exceptions for Specific Students
An exception gives chosen students their own due date, attempts, and time limit. Use it for an extension, extra time, or a make-up attempt.1

Jordan Lee gets 90 minutes per attempt. The due date and attempts match the assessment.
Proctoring
The Proctoring settings make it harder for students to share or look up answers.
Each attempt gets its own order, and students can’t go back or paste.
Shuffling keeps grouped questions together, such as questions that share a passage. Their order within the group can still change. Choice shuffling applies to choice questions. When students must answer in order, they can’t skip a question. Uflo also asks them to confirm before each move forward. Tell students about this rule before they start.Tutoring
The Socratic Tutor helps students with questions and hints and doesn’t give away the answer. Under Feedback and Tutoring, Which tutoring tools can students access? decides whether students can use it and when they see a worked solution.
The tutoring setting sits beside the score and answer settings.
No option shows a worked solution during an attempt. Students see one only for questions that have it.Final Grade Calculation
When students can submit more than once, How should final grades be calculated? decides which attempts count.
Choose how attempts combine into the final grade.
The same two attempts can lead to four different final grades.
Attempts of 90% and 70% give a final grade of 90%, 80%, 70%, or 100%, depending on the policy.
Common Questions
Do shuffle settings change attempts already in progress?
Do shuffle settings change attempts already in progress?
No. Uflo sets the order when a student starts an attempt. A new shuffle setting applies to attempts started after you submit it.
How do I give one student another attempt?
How do I give one student another attempt?
Add an exception for that student with one more attempt than the assessment allows. If the due date has passed, give them a later due date too.
