Shuffling questions from sections
I'm sure I'm missing an easy step but wanted to see how this can be done:
I have say 50 questions from a chapter. Chapter has 5 sections, so 10 questions from each. They're not sectioned out, just a big file of 50 questions.
I place all questions in my question library, and I create 5 sections, and place the respective questions in each section.
In my quiz, I create 5 question pools, and for each pool, I pick one section and tell Brightspace to randomly select 3 of the 10 questions. So a 15 question quiz.
When I randomize at quiz level, it does something like all section 3 questions first, then all section 1 questions, then section 5 questions, etc.
How do I make it so that the first question is say from section 5, the next question randomly from section 3, then 1, then back to 5, etc.? Do I need to put a random section in the quiz and put all my pools into that first?
Thank You
Kevin

@Kevin.H.200 I've tested this before and could never find a way to get the questions from different pools to shuffle together. The questions for each pool always remained together even if they were put in a section with all the shuffling options turned on.

Thanks Jennifer. Hopefully someone from D2L can confirm that's the case. I've been racking my brain trying to think of ways to make this happen and the only way I can think of is create one pool and have it pull from all 5 sections. But that potentially doesn't guarantee I get an equal amount of questions from each section, or potentially even not get any questions from a certain section, depending how many I have.
