- Does it do everything the Quiz tool does? I would say so.
- Drop-down list has been dropped but I won’t miss it. It’s basically a differently-formatted multiple choice question.
- There’s an algorithmic option that might be the same as the Calculated Question type under Wizards and Templates.
- How can I import questions into an assessment? The option is now called Copy and Paste Questions.
- What does it do better than the Quiz tool? What does the Quiz tool do better?
- What do we need to know about it? One good resource is the ANGEL Shorts edition dedicated to this topic.

- Issue discovered with changing answers in the assessment tool (Tue 9 Feb)
Information Technology Services (ITS) has identified a problem with the assessment tool in ANGEL. If a student changes an answer to a question before submitting it, the new answer may not be properly recorded. This problem occurs in two situations:
1. When IP address filtering is enabled. This will happen with either Firefox or Internet Explorer, regardless of any other assessment settings.
2. Loss of Internet connectivity or application timing out.
As a result of these situations, any student who changes his or her mind about the answer to a particular question will find that only the original selection was saved, not the new selection, in the submitted version of the quiz.
ITS is working is working with ANGEL/Blackboard on a solution to this problem.

- Will the tool be implemented? I just spoke with Ravi, Natalie, and Kate and they gave strong indications that there a some serious issues with the Assessments tool. Ravi said that the tool shouldn’t be implemented because 7.4 does not support quizzes and we would lose them as reference when checking the newly migrated assessments. We all agreed that the new tool is nice (after the major bugs, see 7, have been fixed) when starting from scratch, but it the migration aspect that’s killing the process.
