As an Instructor, I have the permission to "Reset Course Content", which I did. It reset everything as I desired, but it left my Item Banks. I wanted those cleared as well, so how can I make it so it does everything?
Hello @SarahPeterson08
Thanks for posting this in the Canvas Community!
If I understand it correctly, Items banks that are used for the New Quiz engine are technically connected to your physical Canvas account instead of physical courses. This comes in handy because you can use your item banks in any course where you have the permission to create and edit a quiz using New Quizzes.
When you reset a courses content, resets pretty much everything at the course level and won't delete item banks since new quizzes uses an LTI/ External tool to retrieve those. Resetting a course's content will delete Question Banks for the old Classic Quiz Engine.
You do have the ability to delete individual item banks if you desire that outcome. HERE is a guide on how that works. Before you do that, keep in mind:
Hopefully this helps!

It is possible to import tags or other metadata when importing in a QTI file? I've tried everything I can think of, but it seems to get stripped out every time. Are any metadata types allowed? I can bring in a batch of tags questions or manually tag each one. Tagging each one is not an option. I'm using New Quizzes, so I…
I'm testing whether Mastery Paths can be used to give students early access to an item based on their score, while making the same item available to everyone else on a later date. Here is my setup: A 4-point assignment is the source for the Mastery Path. Students scoring 75–100% are assigned a Solutions item. The Solutions…
I am a physics teacher at a high school. I love to use the random generation of formula questions to give each student a unique quiz/test. However, units in physics are extremely important. In the past I have also used Moodle as an LMS and they included a feature that could grade the units listed after the numerical…
