Link quiz questions

My paper tests often have several questions that are based on the same hypothetical conditions.

Is it possible in a Brightspace quiz to link questions so they will always appear together and based on the same conditions? And, if possible, can the questions be of different types?

Re: How can I print gradebook details for one student?

Hi Michelle

Brightspace doesn't presently have a tool for exporting individual students in a report layout.

You can export the grades for the course from the Enter Grades page and then filter that result for your desired user be deleting the unneeded rows. Admittedly, this is not a 'pretty' result though. You would need to take that result (the single data row for the one user you were looking at) and transpose it so the grade items were row headers and the grade data was the second column in the spreadsheet. That would be more printable output.

You can do a similar thing with the Data Hub output as well, if you combine data sets in Excel or some other Business Intelligence (BI) tool. Then you can create all sorts of layouts with it.

I hope that's helpful
Matt
