How to move a quiz from one course to another

In order to move a survey, quiz or test to another course, the questions must be in a Question Pool. Only a question pool can be moved from one course to another.

Moving a question pool is a three step process of exporting the pool from one course, importing it into another, then deploying the quiz, test or survey.

To move a quiz, test, or survey:

Export the pool of questions

  1. Go to the course where the quiz, test, or survey is located.
  2. Go to the Control Panel, then the Pool Manager.
  3. Export the Pool of questions to be moved (see separate how-to guide).

Import the pool to the new location:

  1. Go to the course where you want the quiz, test, or survey to be located.
  2. Import the question pool to that course (see separate how-to guide).

Build and deploy the quiz, test, or survey:

  1. From the Control Panel, select Test Manager.
  2. Click "Add Test."
  3. Add a name and descriptive information, and click "Submit."
  4. You can then build tests, either from an existing pool or by creating the questions.
  5. Open a content area and click on Edit View.
    • You can deploy tests in any content area. Tests can not be deployed from the Test Manager.
  6. Click on the Add: "Test" button.
  7. Choose the test you want to add and click Submit.
  8. Back in the content area, find the test and click on Modify.
  9. Click on Modify Test Options to set availability, presentation, and feedback options.
