Faculty's Guide to Canvas

New Quizzes in Canvas

New Quizzes had been slated to replace Classic Quizzes in 2024 but Instructure has delayed the hard cutover and hasn't set a new date for the forced switch to occur. Faculty can choose to use New Quizzes, which has more question types and quiz setting than Classic Quizzes, any time. However, you do have select Classic or New for an entire course - you can't make one quiz using Classic Quizzes and another using New Quizzes.
