Where can I find the openstax "Psychology" test bank for Canvas?

[rkozar]

I am an instructor preparing to teach an online section of Introductory Psychology, and I have obtained the OpenStax Psychology textbook test-bank through the OpenStax instructor materials website, but the questions are in the form of a Word document. Is the test bank for OpenStax Psychology available as a Canvas testbank, or as a chapter by chapter set of Canvas Quizzes? I can provide verification of my faculty status and of the existence of the course I am preparing to teach.

Thanks in advance for any assistance that anyone can provide with this matter.

Cheers!

Hey Rob and welcome to the Community!

As far as using the OpenStax materials, you have a few options.  You could manually enter the questions (shudders) into Canvas.  You could also reformat the Word document to be imported into Canvas.   @jonesn16  did a great job of addressing that process here.  It is also possible that you might find the materials you are wanting to use already in Canvas format in Canvas Commons. Or, you may be able to obtain the quizzes you want directly from the Openstax organization.  I hope one of these options proves useful!

I wish you and your students the best of success in the course you are about to embark on.

Hello Rob,

I believe what you may be looking for is the Openstax QTI Test Bank option at https://openstax.org/details/books/psychology-2e?Instructor%20resources 

Here is a link to the Canvas Guide for How do I import quizzes from QTI packages?

I hope this helps 🙂

Thank you for your answers, I also want to learn how to use these tools to make a new project for the New Year. Actually, I study the psychology of relationships and I am interested in the reasons for breakups and divorces. If you can recommend good blogs/articles on this topic I will appreciate it. So, I found an article about valid reasons for breaking up with someone today on breakupangels.com, please share your opinion, I want to know what you think about it. And if you have had the experience of breaking up with a loved one, then I would like to know the main reasons why this happened and whether you regret it. Thank you in advance.
