[ARCHIVED] Can you convert a new quizzes to old quiz?

[dshoff]

I have a new quiz that I made and it has matching questions but it is all or nothing on the grading. I want to easily move this into the original version of the quiz. So can this actually happen?

David,

I'm sorry but I don't know of any way to move a quiz from New Quizzes to Classic Quizzes.  I don't think it's currently possible.

Hello, 

Has there been an update on this? I'm having to rebuild questions manually. Please advise.

There really needs to be a way to do this. Many of our faculty don't realize the current limitations of New Quizzes and then are stuck with no option to go back to Classic quizzes.

Totally agree - especially if you are using an online proctoring program like Honorlock. It doesn't work!

New Quizzes NOT working with HonorLock was an unpleasant surprise.  You have to revert back to Classic...losing the functionality of all the FITB type questions. Big defect for me...

As always, Canvas is behind on updating everything.  This is one gotcha that they need to fix.  Make Canvas work like Blackboard...please. 

Canvas/Instructure is among the least responsive software companies whose software I have used.  Only PTC is worse and that is saying a lot.  PTC is only interested in huge companies.  PTC is the worst.  Canvas/Instructure is #2 as worst on my list.

Looks like there is a method that works involving exporting a quiz file from the New Quiz and then importing it into Canvas as a QTI file: https://canvashelp.fullerton.edu/m/CanvasFAQ/l/1725775-how-do-i-convert-a-new-quizzes-quiz-to-a-clas...
