Question Library

The Question Library is a central repository that stores and archives questions which can be shared and reused by all quizzes within a course. You can create multiple collections within the Question Library to organize your questions by type and topic, making it easier for you to find questions for your quizzes, surveys, and self-assessments.

You can access the Question Library:

• Click Assessment > Quizzes on the course navbar and select Question Library.
• When creating a quiz, click on the Add / Edit Questions button under the Quiz Questions heading.

Adding a rubric to written response type questions

With the new quiz evaluation instance, users can experience a smooth and consistent grading interface similar to assignments and discussions. Users have the ability to switch between the classic version and the new experience to evaluate question types that are not yet supported in the new quiz evaluation experience.

A rubric can now be added to a written response question type in Quizzes. To maintain consistency, be sure to match the total points of the rubric to the total points of the quiz question.

Users are prompted to return to the Classic quiz evaluation experience if a Question Type is not supported by the new quiz evaluation experience.
