Hey, I realize it's been two years, but during one of Canvas's webinars recently, a presenter shared a quiz template and a link to a Word to QTI converter. This resource has proven to be incredibly useful for both my designers and SMEs. The associated website includes troubleshooting FAQs and provides clear instructions.
I've attached a simple and advanced quiz template. The advanced version comes with additional features such as quiz settings, points allocation, titles, and feedback options.
After completing the template, upload it to the converter link. If formatted correctly, it'll automatically download the QTI to your files (you may have to allow it to download depending on security features).
For more information on formatting:
Once you have the QTI file in your download folder, you can import course content as Content-Type: QTI zip file. Canvas: How do I import quizzes from QTI packages?
