Question Banks
Question Banks
Question Banks (formerly called Question Pools in original course view) allow instructors to store, reuse, and randomize test questions across multiple assessments.
Table of Contents
You can create or import question banks for reuse in multiple assessments. When you select bank questions for an assessment, copies of the questions are created and added to the assessment. You can edit the copies in your assessment without affecting other assessments. Changes you make to one instance of the question or content aren't reflected in the other instances. If you want changes to show in all instances, you must find and edit each copied instance. Only .zip files are supported if you choose to import a question bank.
