October 2025 Updates

Consistent Save and Cancel options in Settings page  

To improve usability and consistency, we standardized the Save and Cancel actions across several assessment settings pages. 

This enhancement includes the following updates: 

• Timer settings: Removed the X icon and added Save and Cancel buttons. 

• Access code settings: Replaced Close and Continue with Cancel and Save. 

• Learning Outcome Measurements: Removed the X icon and added Save and Cancel buttons. 

• Turnitin Originality Report settings: Removed the X icon and added Save and Cancel buttons. SafeAssign settings remain unchanged. 

Tag questions with metadata in tests and question banks  

 Questions can have multiple tags of the same type. Metadata is visible during question creation/editing and can be used to filter questions when reusing or adding to pools. Metadata is not visible to students during test-taking or review. 

Supported metadata types include: 

• Category 

• Topics 

• Levels of Difficulty 

• Keywords 

Require questions before making forms visible to students 

 We improved the visibility controls for forms to align with those of tests ensuring that students only access complete and purposeful assessments. 

Instructors must first add at least one question to a form before they can make it visible to students. Release conditions cannot be set until the form includes questions.
