Classic Quiz was converted to New Quiz

[bengalspice]

One of my instructors reported that Quizzes were not working in her course. Upon inspection, I see that all the Classic quizzes that used to be in this course were converted to New Quiz. No explanation why quizzes that were imported into a shell along with all other content from a Master course have converted to New Quiz across the board automatically. Has anyone else seen this happen in their Canvas instance? I really need these quizzes converted back to Classic.

Hello @bengalspice ...

You might want to have a conversation with your school's local Canvas administrator or someone from your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education department.  There are new options when importing course content from one course to another where Classic Quizzes can be migrated to New Quizzes by default...and it sounds like this is most likely the case for you.  I searched the Community, and I found the following two documents:

• Beta Release Notes: New Quizzes Migration (2021-12... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)

These are feature flags which your school may have enabled, so I would definitely have a conversation with folks at your school about this.

Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on how that conversation goes.

At the moment it's only affecting one course across the board ... meaning even old quizzes in sections that ran a year ago have been affected.

This is not occurring in any other course that was copied by admin through their cloning script, which is why this is so strange. 

This was also not an issue in recent terms. This issue popped up this Fall term.
