Question pool set-up
I need to create a 10-item quiz from a pool of 100 questions in the library. These 100 questions are organized into 5 sub-pools of 20 questions each. Is it possible to for the quiz to call only one of these sub-pools at a time, meaning all 10 questions should be from the same and only pool.

Bonus points for a pool
I have extra credit material for my students to review, and I have created question-pools out of that material, as I do not want all my students to have the same extra credit question. But I find that Brightspace will not allow me to make the questions in a pool for Bonus. Does anyone have a solution for that ? That is, is…

Has anyone experienced inconsistent “overdue” notices for assignments/quizzes completed on time?
Details: In one of our courses, we’re seeing a strange issue where a single assignment appears as “overdue” for all students in the Content area, even though every student submitted it before the due date. I impersonated eight different students, and the behavior is identical—only this one assignment shows the overdue…

Fill in the blank submission view (show correct/incorrect answers)
(This is a follow-up to a question I asked several years ago. I'm starting a new thread for visibility. My apologies if I should have revived the old thread instead.) I'm trying to set up a quiz that students can take more than once with only their highest score recorded. Is it possible to set up a Fill-in-the-Blanks…

I have a large number of quizzes in my course. Many of these quizzes include at last one written response question.

If you edit a question in the question library, should it automatically update wherever it's used?
One of our product names was recently updated. The product name exists in an in-use exam. A Course Designer edited a Question Library question to reflect the new name, but the question in use in the exam did not reflect the new change. In fact, the Course Designer had to manually delete the old version of the question,…

Attempt 1 grade re-sent to gradebook when attempt 2 is submitted but NOT published
TL;DR Why does attempt 1 grade get re-sent to gradebook when student submits attempt 2 (overwriting manually entered grade in gradebook) even though the attempt 2 grade is not published? The quiz is all Written Response questions and auto-publish attempt results is not checked. Synchronize to grade book on publish is…

Section titles/text in Question Library do not update in Quizzes (and vice versa)
I recently discovered that when the Section Title or Section Text is changed in the Question Library, the updates do not carry over to any Quizzes where that section is used. Similarly, if the text is edited directly within a Quiz, the changes do not sync back to the Question Library. This behaviour is different from how…

Please advise how I should…

Quiz Re-entry
Hi, I have noticed a cheating method student's use when the quizzes are ran under Lockdown browser. Let's say a student starts to write the quiz under lockdown browser. It's funny it also possible to do a quiz-re-entry to the same quiz, using the same login when the student is writing the exam. The student doesn't have to…
