If you use Classic Quizzes that rely on Question Banks, we recommend that you wait to migrate your classic quizzes and Question Banks.
Currently, there is not a easy way to migrate class Question Banks to New Quiz Item Banks. We are testing the enhanced migration tool which will provide this functionality
There currently is not a way to duplicate an Item Bank. Be thoughtful about sharing an Item Bank with other instructors. A person with access to an Item Bank can create, edit and delete the Item Bank.
Owning and Sharing Item Banks
Item Banks can be owned/shared by a person, multiple people, by a course, or both.
Any person who is an owner of an Item Bank can create, edit, and delete the Item Bank.
The course ownership option allows anyone in that course who can create a new quiz to create, edit, and delete Item Bank questions. This includes users with the role of Teacher, Asst. Teacher, and Designers – New Quiz
Editing a question in an Item Bank will edit that question in all quizzes/courses linked to that Item Bank. A change to a question in an Item Bank will not affect a quiz which students have already started taking or completed.
Item Bank Recommendations
Setup an Item Bank so it is owned by one or more persons and by a course.
When the content of a course is imported into a new course, the Item Bank will be shared with the new course.
Naming of Item Banks is Very Important
Because Item Banks can belong to a course and/or a person, the naming of Item Banks will help you quickly find your Item Banks and identify in which course you have used that Item Bank.
