Quiz Question Library

Updating questions in an exam
I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this- I created an exam in my Sandbox and imported it along with the question library to my course instance. My exam runs partially on questions pools (draw 2 MCQs from Chapter 2 etc). When I look at the Question library in both my sandbox and my course, the questions are up to…
Code highlighting and randomized answers when importing questions into Question Library via CSV?
I want to bulk upload questions for a final programming exam that I have written in the CSV format (referencing the information in this article). I can use the <code> tag to format the code answer choices, but they render only in monospace font, not using the Java syntax highlighting as when I manually click "Insert Code"…
How do you regrade a matching question ?
I am working with an academic who has in a question the wrong grading type and wants to have grading of equally weighted. The quiz is already sat. How can this type of question be regraded please?
Can't use questions from library that had been used?
When I try to re-use questions from the question library in another quiz in the same course, it informs me that the question had already been used. I need to use the same question again, in another quiz. How do I do that?
Quiz sharing from the repository
I want to confirm that I should be able to create a question bank and a quiz, locate it in the repository and share it out to multiple courses. Any updates to the questions for the quiz in the repository should automatically be reflected in each course's quiz. A workflow would be greatly appreciated.
Can i add a new certificate to a currently live course with release conditions attached to quizzes
I have a live course with a current certificate and old accreditation numbers on it, I need a new certificate added with new accreditation details, but do not want people who completed this previously to get a new certificate. If I add a certificate attached to quiz completions, how can i ensure only a new batch of…
The display box now is too small to view and choose any questions from the Question library.
See the image below where no question can be seen-highlighted area. The scroll bar is also tiny -circled in red. I miss the option of just Add/Edit in old D2L settings. I can't figure out how to choose any question if I can't even see the questions at all.
Can you setup a question pool in quizzes to be a bonus?
We tried to toggle a question pool as a bonus and it doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to make this happen?
In the Release Notes for 20.24.10, "Brightspace Editor – Path detection warning & configuration..."
I have enabled the new configuration variable d2l.Tools.WYSIWYG.LinkPathDetection to On for the organization (on our test instance). I was able to test and confirm that the new warning about images that exist outside the current course shell do work in the Brightspace Editor in many tools…but…I am not able to get this to…
Adding questions to the Question Library after a quiz is created?
Hello, If I create a quiz and add questions, is there a way to add those questions to the Question Library? Thank you, Yildiz
In the Question Library, how's the "Difficulty" value used?
We see the Difficulty value in the Question Library, and when you look at the Question Statistics tool. But if you create a question directly in the exam, there's no Difficulty field. Does Difficulty impact anything in an exam/reporting? Is it mostly there just for an instructor's reference?
Imported Quiz Library missing images
Hello, I have copied my quiz question library from my Fall 2023 course to my current summer 2024 course. Pools and questions have copied fine; however, none of my images have copied over. The alt text is showing in the place of the images. Is there a way to get the images to transfer between courses? This will add many…
How do I create a Random Block?
How do I create a Random Block of 30 questions from a pool of 45 questions? Do I need to "pool" all "sections" the Question Library?
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…
How to Keep Line Breaks when using CSV to Upload to Quiz Questions
I'm using a csv file to upload several questions into the D2L question library. The questions are created successfully. However, the separate lines in each question text are all merged into one line (or one paragraph). How to preserve the spacings including line breaks in question text in csv? I tried using \n, <br> or…
Testbank Question Pool - Bulk Name Change
Hi, I have uploaded a test bank to the Quizzes tool question pool, and for some reason it has named all the questions with numbers rather than with a name. Is there a way to re-name the questions in bulk so that I have the question title there instead? So that if there is a mistake, I can view the question easily and not…
Importing questions into the course quiz from the question library
I have saved multiple choice question items in the question library and am trying to import them into the course. When I go to the course quiz and browse the question library and try to add existing items they do not appear in the selection. How do I action this?
How do we access the question library?
Hi We want to make amendments to some of the questions in our quizzes and would like to alter the question library so that any change is cascaded down to all the quizzes that use that question. However we can't find the question library! Can you explain where this is found? Many thanks Best regards Debbie
uploading a CSV file into question library and keep getting an error
I am trying to upload a file into the question library and keep getting an error The upload didn't complete because your network connection was interrupted. When you're ready, try again
Can you explain more about question banks?
Hello I don't think I'm setting up surveys correctly. I'd like to save all questions I've set up in a question bank so that if I amend any question in the future it will update all the quizzes where the question is found. Is there an option to save new questions to an question bank? If so, how do I do this? Also, if a…
