Canvas Quizzes for LSA Faculty (March 13, 2020 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/73616 73616-18269841@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 13, 2020 11:00am
Location: Modern Languages Building
Organized By: LSA Technology Services

LSA Technology Services is offering training for faculty members on how to create Quizzes in Canvas. Topics will include:

● How to create different question types (fill in the blank, matching, multiple choice)
● How to create quiz banks
● How to create clickable rubrics
● How to randomize questions
● How to edit test option (number of attempts, timer, forced completion, display dates, due dates, and results)

There are other benefits to using online exams in Canvas. The Speedgrader features allows instructors to type responses more efficiently, providing substantive feedback when appropriate. Multiple choice and true/false type Questions are graded automatically and sent directly to the gradebook. Exams and grades are preserved for future reference—for example, the next time a student asks for a letter of recommendation.

LSA has also added a security feature to lock down the testing environment and preserve academic integrity.
