"Custom Time Extension" wouldn't have solved my confusion. My issue is that if a student gets 1.5x time, the amount of extension is 50% of the base time, right? This is exacerbated by
I don't think the behaviour should be changed, that would probably lead to much more confusion, but I think renaming it to something like "Custom Time Multiplier" would be less ambiguous and maybe overall clearer? In any case, the help text should absolutely have a 1.5x or 2x example in addition to the current text.
oops, I meant "Custom Time" not, "Custom Time ~Extension~".
I also agree with everything @djsutherland said!
There was a suggestion made by an instructor using the CBTF (for the first time) that some of the text around adding time extensions for students is confusing.
Specifically, this page here:
Perhaps "Edit Time Extension" should be renamed to "Custom Time"?
Also, the text
isn't quite complete is it? Because setting the value to
100
also technically removes the accommodation.Anyway, I don't know what to suggest, this was confusing to me as well when I first encountered it and I had the same questions about what that box does. Filing an issue in case people have ideas.
