I am looking for a way to easily convert paper quizzes to digital. I would like to upload the quizzes I already have so the students can answer and submit them through canvas and receive immediate feedback. Is there a way to do this without having to type each question?
Solved! Go to Solution.
There is a 3rd party software that allows you to import a word document and convert it to Canvas Quizzes: https://web.respondus.com/he/respondus/
You might want to check with your institution to see whether that software is available to you. Otherwise, they also offer 30 days free trial.
Unfortunately no, there is not a way for Canvas to take a word doc and transform it into a quiz automatically, as the system wouldn't be able to recognize the different types of questions, how many points to give, etc. from the document.
