Making Exceptions for Students on Activities

User overrides allow you to edit the settings of an activity for a specific student. You can open or close the quiz at a different time or date for an individual, for example. You might also choose to allow a student more time on a timed test. You can edit the override any time. A video tutorial can be found here: Overriding Settings/Making Exceptions
