Enter Quiz as User - When Session Restriction is enabled

John.S.971

Regarding the “Session Restriction – Lock each attempt to a single login session” setting:

When this setting is enabled, it appears that instructors are unable to use the “Enter Quiz as User” feature to temporarily impersonate a student and submit a pending attempt.

The workaround we used was to temporarily disable the session restriction setting, enter the quiz as the user and submit the attempt, and then re-enable the setting afterward. While this worked, it doesn’t feel like the most elegant or ideal solution.

Has anyone found a better workaround for this scenario? If not, has this behavior already been submitted as a PIE? I’m considering submitting one, but wanted to check with the community first.

Thanks!

You can also reset the session on the attempt, then you can enter the quiz as user to submit it on their behalf.

Hey, can you change the whole session to a student impersonation and then re-enter it?

I tried impersonating the student, but was still blocked.

Thank you Tim, I think this is the best workaround. I will share it with our team.

I did report this to D2L and it was confirmed it was functioning as intended, as the instructor is not in the same session as the student. Happy to upvote a PIE item if one is created.
