Hello! I would like to use new quizzes, but I'm having a hard time trying to "group" the questions like you can in Classic Quizzes. How do you or can you "group" questions in New Quizzes? Thank you.
Hi
This is possible by using item banks. For example, I label item banks "Course Unit Topic Level." The level are the sections or groupings that I want in the new quiz. I even have an item bank called "Assessment Level Dividers" and this lets kids know the section is changing.
In the Build
Click the blue + the folder for the item banks and choose the item bank. Click on Add all / Random. You'll see the bank is added to the quiz. Add the next item bank. Arrange the banks in the sections you desire.
In the Settings
In Settings, do NOT choose "Shuffle Questions" and you'll have your sections.
Back in the Build, click on Preview so that you can check if this is how you want the quiz presented to students.

Does anyone have any good tips on moderating assessments? Here's the context: Canvas course with 300+ learners in it.

Teachers often assume that because an assignment is a groupassignment, they will automatically grade it per group via SpeedGrader. With the option “Grade students individually”, they think they’re simply assigning the group grade to each individual student — without realizing that this option actually requires them to…
