Complex Tests in Brightspace

Brightspace @ XULA logo

Using the Quizzes tool is an easy way to administer exams in Brightspace.

There are a number of question types available in the Brightspace Quizzes tool. We’ll cover the Question Library and some of the more complex question types in this workshop.

If you have an existing exam that you want to get into Brightspace, be sure to have a copy of it on hand. Participants will collaborate to identify the most effective way to convert complex questions into a format that will work best in Brightspace.

This workshop is a follow up to our Brightspace: Tests and Quizzes workshop. ICYMI, the workshop recording is available at this link: Brightspace: Tests and Quizzes workshop recording [25:00].

This workshop assumes you have some familiarity with using the Brightspace Quizzes tool. If not, please watch the Brightspace: Tests and Quizzes workshop recording [25:00] OR watch these three short videos before the workshop.
