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.

We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
