I've created a question bank of about fifty items. I created a quiz, linked it to a question bank, and created a question group to pull five items from the question bank. When I save and preview the quiz, it contains every item in the question bank.
My guess is you have two question groups with your quiz and one of the two has all of the questions selected. Or perhaps all of the questions were selected accidentally. Attached is a screenshot showing two question groups within a quiz, one with a link to a question bank (3 questions selected) and the other with those same questions included in the group with all 8 selected. Luckily changing the number of questions selected is as easy as editing the question group.

These are feature suggestions. If there's a better place to put this post, please move it/let me know. Analytics We can see total time spend in the entire course, page views and participations already for each item. If we could see total time spent with each item, it would be very useful to gauge student actions in the…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many higher‑education instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
