Final Exam Activation Window needs to be increased to be greater than 8 hours.
Since Cisco NetSpace will not allow for consecutive activations, I would like for the Final Exam Activation Window to be increased from 8 hours to 7 Days. I teach online and I may have students take the Final Exam over a 3 day period. Most of my students are "Non-Traditional" and may take the exam at varying times during the day and night.

Final exams can now be activated for up to 7 days. Thanks for the suggestion.

I like the password option Carolyn suggested.
I see a problem where the activation period is so long and instructors don't monitor or Proctor their students taking the exams. That is why we have the tests and answers all over the Internet.

What does "we plan to keep the default at 8 hours" mean? The max is 8 hours, the default is 1 hour, unless you change it to a longer duration. Do you mean you plan to change the max setting to something higher than 8 hours?

Kimberly,
That is an answer from someone who doesn't actually have to run a classroom. Keeping track of individual activation times for 30 students, much less the 120 or more final exams I might give over a 1 week period is NUTS! There is no way to manage this, plus then when a student has a problem getting in, etc. you have to deal with that all on a one-on-one basis which is exceedingly time consuming. -

Why not just increase the activation window for final exams to be longer than 8-hours?
