How can I take sets of questions from both old quizzes and new quizzes and add them to a brand new item bank?
The current process is rather tedious but it is possible. There are two main stages.
Stage One: Old Quiz to New Quizzes (careful on images)
If the old quiz uses random pull from a question bank then build a version in classic quizzes which pulls all of the questions from the question bank. Next, go to settings and export the quiz. This will create a QTI. Save this export to your local drive.
Go to New Quizzes Item Banks. Create a new item bank. You can name it anything. Enter the item bank. Click on the 3 vertical dots (the kabob). You'll see import content. Import in the QTI that you exported. The new item bank will be renamed the name of that QTI export.
Stage Two: Copy Questions from Item Bank to Item Bank
Now you have TWO item banks in New Quizzes. Choose which will hold all of the questions. I'll assume the first item bank, therefore, open the new item bank. Click on the Copy Icon (not the pencil or trash can). Search for the first item bank name. Keep the content in case there is a mistake. Repeat through each of the questions. When you are done then you should have one item bank with all the questions from the classic and the new quizzes.
I wanted to hop in on this thread since I see this question is a popular one! Once New Quizzes are able to be exported (coming soon in Q3 per the roadmap), you will be able to export New Quizzes as QTI files and then import them into Item Banks so you can make as many copies as you would like. I hope this information is helpful! Feel free to reach out to your CSM team for additional New Quizzes support. Have a great day!
Hello, I am using checkpoint discussions. When I see that I have some submissions in my To Do list to grade, I click on it, go into Speedgrader, and now have to search to see which students have posted or not. It used to designate which students had posts to grade so it was easy to just go to those students. Something has…
A teacher at my school set up her coursework category to "Drop the lowest score" in both Canvas and PowerSchool (we use both). At the end of the semester, 13 of her 78 students had different percentages, with 8 of those being corner cases, resulting different letter grades. And all of those scores were higher in Canvas. I…
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
