Hi folks! I'm helping someone here might be able to offer some hints. I am trying to create a quiz in blackboard by uploading a quiz I had created using EZ Test. I chose my questions and went to "Format/Print" and chose to export to Blackboard. It allows me to save a zip file. When I try to upload that zip file into blackboard, I am given an error. I've tried to upload it into the pool and into the quiz itself. This is my first blackboard course, and this seems like it should be a no brainer. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it? I really don't feel like manually typing in every question and set of answers for the whole semester... Any help would be appreciated! -Matt
I'm not sure which version of BB you are using. But the easiest way is to create a new pool. After you set up the test name then you can import your file. I have found that most test creation programs don't import into the BB test or pool. Even if it looks like it imports when you open it, nothing is there. You can also create a new test the same way, just make sure you do your test creation settings before you import your test or you won't have your question point value saved. After you save it you can go back and make any adjustments to individual questions, answers etc. It is also possible that EZ test might not be compatible, but I have used BB 5.0-9.1 and haven't had too much trouble with EZ test or Examview loading. You just can't use the BB import feature, you have to create a new exam or pool and pull it in that way. Good luck!
