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!
Hi. I'm using Canvas Free for teachers and I'm experiencing an issue Course Analytics not showing any students and activity. I created a course last month and manually added students into it. Some of them accepted and I can see from the People tab that they are spending time in the course (the total time is increasing). I…
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
Hello, I’m wondering if Differentiation Tags can be configured as part of a Blueprint course. Our goal is to store differentiated content (pages, assessments, etc.) centrally within the Blueprint and have it already associated with specific Differentiation Tags (e.g. Support, Core, Extension). After the Blueprint is…
Dear Forum members, In the past, I asked students to hide some worksheets in the Excel files they would upload to Canvas. I was only interested in the results of their Excel analysis, and asked students to hide the worksheets with raw data in them. This worked until last Fall, but now SpeedGrader is rendering all…
