How do I send a quiz to another instructor?

As an instructor, you can share individual quizzes in your course with other instructors at your institution. You can also copy an individual quiz into another course. When you share a quiz, any assets within that quiz (images, files, etc.) will be included in the shared file.

Notes:  

  • To share course content, you must have the Course Content - add / edit / delete permission enabled.
  • Shared content does not count against course or user quotas.
  • You can use the Send to feature to send course content to yourself.
