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 to the community, I understand the two reporting options in Canvas for Outcomes. I need a curriculum overview report to show what outcomes from the institutional menu are being utilized in each individual course. What we have done: Our accrediting body, AACN, has a set of Domains and Competencies that nursing must meet,…
A and B are each actually areas of the workshop with a different emphasis. Having the students split between areas makes equipment access easier. How do I allow students to choose between working in area A for the first half of the term, then area B for the second half of the term, or the opposite, while using Course…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
