Howdy, phenomenal educators!
For a teacher who has question banks for different topic areas, how does a teacher make sure that Canvas does not give redundant questions? What to do to avoid pulling the same question multiple times?
Thanks!
I have not noticed this issue in the past, but it happened this semester. I have a bank of 8 questions and the quiz is supposed to pull 3 for each student.

How can we avoid that and make sure that 3 different questions are getting pulled from the questions bank?

The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission.
