Q: If I change a question in my question bank will it automatically update in the quiz?

If you add questions to a quiz using the ‘New Question Group’ function, then changes in the question bank will be reflected in the quiz. However, if you add a question using the ‘ Find Questions ’ function, this creates a copy of the question from the bank in its current form. Any changes to the question in the bank will NOT be reflected in the quiz from that point on. Canvas Guide: How do I create a quiz with a question group linked to a question bank?
