Migrating Classic Quizzes to New Quizzes:

Depending on how your assessments are created in Classic Quizzes, questions in your assessment will either be directly in the assessment or they will be added to an Item Bank. Item Banks are used to store questions that are grouped together for randomization in assessments (replaces question groups and question banks) and can be shared with other users for collaboration. The following table displays three examples of assessments in a Classic Quiz and how it appears in a New Quiz. Please see our Migrate a Classic Quiz to a New Quiz article for step by step instructions.
