How do I create a question bank for a test?
A question bank is a collection of questions that can be published/exported as a test.
To build a question bank, go to:
- Go to Content Editor
- Click + New content
- Go to the Build a test tab
Then, choose how you want to create questions – manually or with the AI Copilot:
Option A: Write questions manually
- Click Write questions manually to enter the Editor.
- Simply Start adding questions in the left panel.
- A collection of 13 types of assessment questions will open – select the question type you’d like to add.
- Once you select the question type, a sample question will be added to your bank. Use the editing tools on the right hand side panel to update the question.
Option B: Generate questions with AI Copilot
- Click Generate questions with AI Copilot.
- A pop-up window of all your content will appear. Select the content you want as a source of information for your question bank.
- Select how many questions you want to include in your question bank.
- Select the types of questions you want the Copilot to generate.
Give it a minute and your question bank is ready. Feel free to fine-tune the questions, remove unnecessary ones or add more.
Alternatively, you can generate a question bank directly from a course by clicking on the AI Copilot button and selecting Generate question bank.
Rearranging the order of your questions
To rearrange the order, drag and drop a question to a wanted position on the list of questions in the left hand side panel:
Important questions
Note, that once you’ll be exporting/publishing your question bank as a test, you can choose whether the test will include:
- All questions from your question bank; or
- Only a limited number of randomly selected questions from the entire bank.
To make sure a particular question is always included in a test, mark it as an important question in your question bank:
