New Quizzes: Building quizzes, batch change point value

0 Likes
Suggestion:
 
In the 'build' function of New Quizzes, I wish I could select multiple questions at once to 1) change the point value of a whole batch and 2) add all of the selected questions to a test bank.  I don't like having to do it question by question - it's incredibly time consuming and inefficient. 

Also, I just realized today that after I import a quiz into Canvas via Respondus and then edit it in the 'build' function (where I change the point value of the questions and usually add essay questions with a different point value), Canvas is NOT updating the point value for the quiz.  This is a considerable problem that I didn't realize I needed to manually override.  Why can't Canvas do this math and auto update for me?

Thanks for sharing these ideas. As the idea description contains two different requests, we are not able to move it forward for broader conversation. Please read through How do I create a new idea conversation in the Canvas Community? for guidance on writing singularly-focused idea prompts.

For the first idea, please add your comments to the long-standing and actively-monitored discussion underway at Ability to select multiple questions at once in qu... - Canvas Community 

If you haven't yet, please ask Canvas Support to investigate the second issue in the description (starting with "Also").

Thanks again!
