Improvements to the New Quizzing Experience and Short Answer Questions

This release introduces further improvements to the new quizzing experience for True or False, Multiple Choice, Long Answer, and Short Answer quiz questions, which include the following:
  • If instructors opt out of the new quizzing experience, they are prompted to provide a reason why they are opting out.

  • An option (Save and Copy) has been added that enables instructors to save the current question and copy the content to a new question that can be edited.

  • Short Answer questions have been enhanced. Instructors can select the new Students must answer all blanks correctly grading option, which is an all or nothing grading option, or Students will receive part marks, which divides the total points by the number of answers possible.
