In order to access, apply, and manage accommodations in Quizizz, select the “Accommodations”<\/strong> tab in the left-hand side navigation panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon pressing the tab, the accommodations page will open as shown in the image below, with a list of students imported from your classes<\/strong> on the left, and the list of accommodations on the right side (visit Quizizz’s official tutorial<\/a> on how to import your Microsoft Teams Class to Quizizz).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To apply accommodations, simply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Select a student, or students, from the list. You can filter the list by classes, student names as well as applied accommodations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Choose the appropriate accommodations from the list and apply additional settings to further personalise the accommodation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. To add more accommodations to specific students, deselect all other students and apply more accommodations to the chosen student.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Accommodations will be saved <\/strong>for the selected student and can be easily applied for multiple assignments. You can always edit the settings, should the accessibility requirements change or are no longer needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In order to be able to use the set accommodations, the quiz or lesson need to be assigned<\/strong> to the class with the chosen students. In order to achieve this, enable the “Add accommodations”<\/strong> slider and Assign<\/strong> the quiz, choosing the appropriate class in the window that opens. You can learn more about Quizizz by accessing our training module on StaffZone<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
