Question Builder: Bulk Actions

You may now select multiple questions to move, copy or delete. To access this feature in Question Builder, click Select under Folder Options. You may select by question or folder in multi-select mode.

Note: When moving between single & multi-select mode, all folder and question selections will be reset.

Additionally, we have created a Summary view for multi-select mode to help you distinguish between several questions at once. In the Summary tab, you can see how many questions you’ve selected, the questions’ names with the folder in which they are found, and you can deselect questions with greater ease.

“Grades Report” Icon Update: Diagnostics Test Credit

A new Lesson Status icon denotes students who have taken a diagnostic test and received credit for a lesson as a result of their performance on this test. It is represented by an inverted green check mark.

This will clarify which students have received lesson credit via Certify vs. a diagnostic test.
