EdgeEX — Providing Retakes from the Educator Launchpad

 Permission

To add retakes from the Educator Launchpad, you must have the Add Retake permission. To check your permissions, reference Checking your educator permissions.

Use this article to provide an assessment retake for one student or multiple students from the Educator Launchpad.

The Initial Allowed Attempts value set in the Course Options controls the number of attempts a student has on a given assessment type before they are blocked from trying again. When students exhaust the initial allowed attempts set for them, a teacher will need to take action in order for them to continue in their course.

As soon as a student exhausts their initial allowed attempts, the student will automatically display on the Out of Retakes widget on the Educator Launchpad. The widget will show the total number of assessments that are out of retakes, as well as the number that have been in out of retakes for more than 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions

Who can see enrollments that are out of retakes?
Teachers see only enrollments in sections they are assigned as primary or secondary teachers. Administrators see all enrollments in any schools they are assigned to.
What if I change my mind and want to take away the retake?
If you have just added an attempt in the Quick View, you can undo it using the icon (for a single student) or the Undo banner at the top of the widget (for multiple students). However, if you have already closed the Quick View, you will need to visit the student’s Gradebook (in the Enrollment Hub) to delete the attempt.
What if the student I want to give a retake to does not appear in the Out of Retakes Quick View?
This is unlikely to happen; however, if it does, you can navigate to the assessment directly. Choose the student’s course from their course list or the Manage Enrollments page, and navigate to the Gradebook tab of the Enrollment Hub.
