How do I duplicate an assessment (i.e. test or quiz)?

You can make multiple copies of an assessment in the same site.

Tip: You no longer need to duplicate an assessment to enable different date or time settings for specific students. For steps, see How do I give specific students different date or time settings on an assessment?

Go to Tests & Quizzes.

Select Tests & Quizzes from the tool menu in your site.

Select Duplicate.

In the Working Copies tab of Tests & Quizzes:

  1. Select the Actions menu for the assessment.
  2. Select Duplicate.

Note: You cannot duplicate assessments in the Published Copies tab.

Confirm duplication.

On the Duplicate Assessment Confirmation screen, select Duplicate.

View duplicated assessment.

Your duplicated assessment will have the title of your original assessment, with a Copy number listed after it.

For example, if you copy an assessment, Quiz #1, for the first time, the copy will be titled Quiz #1 - Copy #1.  If you duplicate the original Quiz #1 again without editing the title of Quiz #1 - Copy #1, the newly duplicated assessment will be titled Quiz #1 - Copy #2.

Edit the duplicated assessment's settings.

Edit the Settings of the duplicated assessment, such as its title and availability, by following the steps outlined in How do I inspect and adjust the settings of an assessment?
