Finals support for CCLE users

If you are using the CCLE quiz tool for your online exam:

Pagination of quizzes to cause frequent saving. We highly recommend that you set up the quiz with frequent pagination, e.g. one or two questions per page. The reason is that students’ responses are saved every time they go to a new page – so more pages means more saving. (The responses are also saved every two minutes.) To change pagination, click on your CCLE quiz -> Edit settings -> Layout -> New page -> Every Question. Then save. If you need assistance with pagination, you can contact your local support.
Do not set an ending time. We also request that you do not set an ending time for the quiz (although you may set a starting time so that the quiz will be released to the students at a particular time). We are trying to avoid any problems associated with many students trying to submit simultaneously, possibly leading to submission problems. If you did not explicitly set an ending time, the default is none, so that is fine. We recommend that you send your students a notice, say at 2:50 into a 3-hour exam, indicating that individuals without accommodation for more time should be finishing in 10 minutes. After the final ends, you will be able to access a list showing when your students submitted their quizzes, so you will know if they submitted on time or close to it.

If you need emergency technical assistance during your final:

If you run into technical difficulty using CCLE, Zoom, or Respondus during your final, you can email your local support. If you have trouble reaching your local support for whatever reason, you can also reach out to ccle@teaching.ucla.edu for immediate assistance. We will do our best to help, but sadly depending on demand can’t guarantee to be able to solve all problems during the final.

Whatever problems you may run into, we recommend that you try to lower the level of anxiety of your students and reassure them that their grade in the course will not be adversely affected by technical problems.
