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. Most students are getting 3 different questions, but some students are getting 2 different questions, with the 3rd question being a duplicate of one of the others. How can we avoid that and make sure that 3 different questions are getting pulled from the questions bank?
Hello,
Canvas doesn't really have a way to screen questions to make sure it is not pulling duplicates from multiple question banks or the same bank linked more than once. As a result we recommend linking a bank to a quiz only once and making sure that there is as little overlap when making a quiz with multiple question banks as possible. I hope this helps.

Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
