How do I create or manage question banks in an account?

You can create and manage questions banks for your institution or subaccount. Question banks are quiz question repositories that admins and instructors can access when creating a quiz. They make it easy to offer the same quiz questions to students in different courses.

After you create question banks, you can delete, edit, and bookmark them as needed. Bookmarking a question bank allows users to quickly identify favorite or frequently used question banks.

Note: If you are using New Quizzes, you can learn about creating or managing New Quizzes item banks.
