Associating questions with keywords

You can associate questions with keywords to make it easier to find existing questions you want to add to an assessment. There are no default keywords for questions; you create them to suit your course curriculum.

You can also create categories in which to group questions.

Note: To create keywords and associate questions with them, you must enable the Add categories and keywords to questions creation setting.

This procedure assumes you are in the process of adding questions to an assessment or modifying assessment questions.

To associate questions with keywords:

  1. On the Test Canvas, Survey Canvas, or Pool Canvas page, click Modify next to a question with which you want to associate keywords.

  2. Under Categories (at the bottom of the page), enter one or more keywords separated by commas in the Keywords box.

  3. Click Submit.

To remove keywords, modify the question and delete the keywords you no longer want associated with the question.
