[ARCHIVED] Adaptive Assessments

[ElizabethRamsay]

Does Canvas have any tools for developing adaptive assessments? Can we post series of questions that are presented, or not presented, depending on a student's response to a previous question?

@ElizabethRamsay There is nothing native to Canvas that will do this inside a single assessment.  I have seen different apps that integrate with Canvas to accomplish or Canvas does have MasteryPaths.  MasteryPaths does not work within a single assessment can tie several together.  Basically students begin with a quiz and based on the score they receive on that quiz, they are then directed to 1 of 3 paths (which can be another quiz, assignment, discussion, or even a page).  While this is not as elegant as a single adaptive assessment, it could work based on how adaptive you were trying to make it.

What is MasteryPaths? 

How do I use MasteryPaths in course modules? 

Hope this helps!
