Assessment Options in Canvas
Canvas offers several assessment options. Please note, if you wish to use question groups and question banks, we recommend you create those question groups and banks before creating the quiz itself. See the collection of Instructure resources below for more specifics.
Note: If you are concerned about the security of your quiz, see our recommendations for increasing quiz security to minimize cheating in Canvas quizzes.
