Create Quizzes Using the Question Bank
Teachers can use existing items from the Question Bank.
The "Show all questions" option shows all the questions for teachers to review before adding them to the quiz.
This can be done for MCQs and for multi-part FRQs that have been broken out into separate questions.
An icon appears next to the Question Title, indicating if it’s a Topic Question, or if it’s part of a Progress Check of a Practice Exam, to help them decide to include it in their quiz.

We are still collecting names and gathering the needs of schools as we are hoping for a timely release of funds. We will NOT be able to register teachers until Title II funding has been released. Teachers CANNOT count as serving students until they are enrolled in the GT Endorsement coursework.

Details regarding registration, course dates, and course expectations are typically sent out at the end of August.
