To have quizzes modified, access the Quiz Reset Form (QRF) via the Help? tab on the left side of the Canvas classroom

NOTE: If you click on the form link in the course and it states that you do not have permission to view it, please try the following:

  • Clear caches, cookies, Internet history, etc. Tip: Pushing CTRL+Shift+Delete (non-mac users) will bring up a dialog to clear your cache in any browser.
  • Log into your Microsoft 365 account and try to access the QRF again in the course.  You must be logged into your Microsoft 365 account to have permission to view the QRF in the course.

Please request resets promptly. The last day of the course is the deadline for comp exams and quiz resets to ensure the timely posting of final grades (except for Incompletes).

Instructors should assume that the quiz reset request will be completed within 24 hours during the business week, as no communication is sent out confirming the quiz has been reset.

Note: Resetting a quiz won’t clear out the previous score in the gradebook since quizzes in Canvas retain the highest-scored attempt. To you and the student, the gradebook will make it appear the quiz has not been reset. The student must enter the quiz link from the quiz assignment page to open the new attempt.
