Hi Moaz,

I tested this on our Support site by taking a quiz as a user, and the following scenarios

-Disconnected the wi-fi to my my machine in the middle of the quiz attempt

-Closed the quiz window and randomly browsed the D2L Site (while still logged in as that user)

-Closed the D2L window altogether (in the middle of the quiz attempt)

In all 3 cases, I found that I had "exceeded the time" when I re-entered the quiz, meaning the clock was ticking.

The quiz exit and re-entry times will be logged in the Quiz Events Log.

I hope this helps answer your question.

Thanks

Rahul.
