I created a test in Canvas and I'm wondering if there is a way to download/send/copy to my laptop?
Hey @AmySarratt!
New Quizzes has a feature where you can print a quiz. See the following Community Guide: How do I print a quiz in New Quizzes?
If you created the quiz in Classic Quizzes, you can export the quiz and import it as a New Quiz to print.
How do I export a New Quiz from a course?
How do I import quizzes from QTI packages?
When printing, the print window often has an option to "print" as a PDF file. This should save a PDF file on your computer that you should be able to send to your laptop. If you are not seeing the "Print to PDF" option, you may need to Google an answer for your specific system.
Hope this helps!
Of course there is an easier way to convert a Classic Quiz to a New Quiz.

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
