New Quizzes (Canvas)

New Quizzes has not yet been updated with Canvas’ new Rich Content Editor. Canvas plans to integrate the standard RCE as part of the transition, but some functionality is limited/different until the integration is complete

• No HTML editor.
• No accessibility checker.
• It is not possible to directly import course files or Studio videos. Instead, you must utilize a URL/embedded link or import directly into the quiz build.
• The math editor is an alternative math tool called MathQuill and works/views differently when entering LaTeX commands.

Canvas continues to update how faculty can control partial credit awarded for some question types.

• Multiple Choice allows for different point values by answer.
• Multiple Answer
• No partial credit available for Categorization questions, Matching questions, nor Ordering questions.

Item banks are a collection of questions and stimuli outside of the New Quizzes quiz used to organize questions and create randomization.

• Item Banks are attached to the user that created the bank.
• They may be shared with other users and/or the course to use or edit.
• It is important to pay close attention to naming of Item Banks in order to easily identify those banks for future use.
• You may regrade any automatically graded question. When you regrade a question for one student, the change is applied to all students asked that question.

• Settings are adjusted within the quiz build feature rather than on the quiz details page.
• You cannot moderate a quiz during an active attempt.
