New Quizzes
New Quizzes is a quiz engine that integrates with Canvas and will replace the classic quizzes functionality currently existing in Canvas. Therefore, the VU recommends using New Quizzes over classic quizzes.
Quizzes in Canvas are assignments that can be used for digital testing to challenge student understanding and assess comprehension of course material. The quiz tool is used to create and administer online quizzes both graded and ungraded.
Please note: Testvision is the standard exam application at the VU. See Testvision for more information.
