Schoology Learning

Convert a test or quiz to course assessments

Overview

If your school uses Assessments, you can convert any test or quiz in Resources to an assessment by using the test/quiz conversion tool. Converting a test or quiz to an assessment creates an assessment in a specified destination.

The newly created assessment is a copy of the original test/quiz with the following information:

  • Instructions

  • Test-level settings

  • Question stimulus and responses

  • Embedded images and rich text content

  • Question-level settings

  • Text blocks

  • Question order

  • Rubrics (on short answer or essay questions)

  • Aligned learning objectives

  • All assessment attempts are resumable and allow students to review answers before submitting.

  • All assessments display one question per page. If a test/quiz with page breaks is converted to an assessment, those page breaks will be removed from the assessment.

  • Assessments do not support language keyboards. If a test/quiz with a language keyboard is converted to an assessment, the assessment will not have a language keyboard.

  • Assessments do not support unlimited attempts. If a test/quiz with unlimited attempts is converted to an assessment, the assessment will be set to 20 attempts.

  • If a test/quiz contains a set of random questions from a question bank, those questions are not included in the converted assessment.
