Overview of New Quizzes
Instructure has released New Quizzes, a new quizzing tool for Canvas. New Quizzes will eventually replace Classic Quizzes, however, this will not happen all at once (view timeline above). We recommend using the quizzing tool that best meets the needs of the course while familiarizing and preparing for when New Quizzes will become the standard.There are innate differences between the New Quizzes and Classic Quiz features. New Quizzes offers several features and question types that are currently unavailable in Classic Quizzes. However, New Quizzes does not currently have every feature traditionally available in Classic Quizzes. Please note that Instructure will continue to add to the New Quizzes feature set over the next two years.

Tip: The Canvas Quizzes tool now houses both Classic Quizzes and New Quizzes. When you create a quiz, you'll be asked which type of quiz you want to work with. On the Quiz index page, icon styles differentiate between Classic and New Quizzes. Classic Quizzes have an outlined icon of a rocket ship, whereas the icon for New Quizzes is a solid (filled in) rocket ship.
