Copy a quiz question within the same quiz (duplicate questions)
I made a quiz with questions that had the same choices for answers and it would have been nice to be able to copy and paste a question within a quiz and then make small but important changes. I could copy or move to a new quiz but not back to the same quiz. For example, I had several multiple choice questions with the answers Flash, ROM, RAM, NVRAM, etc. It would have been a time saver to duplicate questions.

Lewis,
When you create a new question directly in a quiz, that new question is automatically added to the "unfiled" question bank. Moving/copying that question is outlined here http://guides.instructure.com/s/2204/m/4152/l/50751-how-do-i-move-copy-a-question-from-one-bank-to-another
But here are the basics.
1. If you click on Quizzes (in left Nav) and then Manage Question Banks (to the right), you should be able to go into the "Unfiled" Question bank and see the question you created.2. Select that question, then select "move/copy question to another question bank".
3. I would add it to a "new question bank". Be sure to check the box that says "Keep a copy of this item Repeat the process as many times as needed. Make your adjustments to each question and rename the questions appropriately.
4. Go back to your quiz, select Edit -> Questions-> Find Questions then add your new items.
Hope this helps.
