## Live Control

There are two ways to access Live View controls:

1. Click on the student name
2. Select multiple students and click **Bulk Actions**

### Pause/Unpause

Pausing an assessment will:

* Conceal the assessment from the student
* Stop the student's countdown timer
* Save and lock the student's progress

Unpausing an assessment will:

* Allow a student to continue where they left off
* Automatically extend the availability window

{% hint style="info" %}
Pausing is very effective during a fire drill. Simply select all students by clicking the checkbox in the table header, select pause and click save.
{% endhint %}

### Add Time

Adding time to an assessment will:

* Be recorded as extra time
* Extend the availability window automatically

### Force Submit

Forcing a submission will:

* End the countdown timer
* Save and submit the student's progress
* Notify the student

### Reopen Attempt

After an assessment has been submitted, it can be reopened in the Submitted tab of Live View. You can specify the time limit for the reopened attempt and the due date. The timer will begin when the student enters their assessment.

EXAMIND records each **Take** of an attempt in the Live View. Reopening an attempt creates a subsequent take, as seen below.
