When creating a quiz, do I have to upload each question one at a time (single QTI file) or can I upload 1 QTI file that has all of the quiz questions?
Hi @LKV,
May I ask how you're getting your QTI files (making them through a program like Respondus, exporting from another LMS, getting them from a vendor, etc...)? In general, Canvas should have no problem importing a QTI file with multiple questions. Vendors often provide quiz questions this way and it works great. There can be some gotchas with the version of QTI being used, or the formatting of the QTI if you're doing something manually, but I would say that's an issue outside of Canvas itself really.
Hope this helps!

It can be one file (that'd be the most convenient for you, as you'd just have one upload to do), but it can also be split up. Either way would work in Canvas. From what I have experienced as a Canvas admin, vendors will usually either provide one file for a whole book, or they will break their files up by chapter/unit. A single QTI file can contain multiple quizzes and/or banks, it's all dependent how the vendor decides to do things.
There seems to be a change in my current rubric that it no longer shows different colours when marked via Speedgrader ie Red for Below Standard, Yellow for At Standard and Green for Above Standard. No it only shows Green across all Ratings. Is this able to be fixed?

Based on the Instructure FAQ, we understand that only the following fields are transmitted during a sync: Assignment Description Assignment Group Association/Category…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many 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 re‑distributing…
