New Quizzes

Introduction

Instructure has been working on a multi-year project to redesign the Quizzes section of Canvas. As of June 2021, this new version of Quizzes is optionally available for classes at Biola.

Eventually, this version ("New Quizzes") will become the default on Canvas.

To turn on this feature now, go to a course, click "Settings" in the left menu, then click the "Feature Options" tab and on the line that says "New Quizzes" click he red X and choose "Enabled."

More Details

Eventually, all quizzes on Canvas will use this "New Quizzes" system rather than the current version ("Classic Quizzes"). For complete details see https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Basics-Guide/What-is-New-Quizzes/ta-p/17

New Quizzes is an assessment engine that integrates with Canvas as an LTI tool and replaces the classic quizzes functionality currently existing in Canvas.

Instructors can use New Quizzes to create assessments using a variety of questions types. New Quizzes assessments display as assignments in the Assignments page and can be duplicated. Students can take New Quizzes assessments within their Canvas courses.
