How can I add section headings to my New Quiz? For example, I have 3 different groups of questions. How can I let my students know that they are going to to new group of questions. But I still want it all of be on one single quiz.
Hey @BSpitale!
I think the easiest way to do this would be to create a fill in the blank question type, include the directions, instructions, are other necessary details, and then ask them to type the word YES in the blank if they understand. Make these questions worth 0 (zero) points so it really doesn't matter what they type in. This should give you the ability to add new section information in a New Quiz without affecting the quiz score. Add one of these questions for each new section.
I would use Open Entry as the Answer Type. Other options make you include at least two options. See below for the editing view of this question. Notice it is set to 0 points at the bottom left.
Here is what the question would look like from the student view while taking the quiz.
Some other question types could work, but they also require more than a single option for answers.
Hopefully you will find this a working solution.
This is very cumbersome! Most tests have different sections.
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?

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…
