New Quizzes has been re-enabled as of Mon 16 June, 2025

You may choose to use Classic or New when creating Quizzes. You can also migrate existing Classic Quizzes to New Quizzes.

Here is the selected feature comparison of New Quizzes with Classic Quizzes.

Canvas' long-term plan is to retire Classic Quizzes, in favour of New Quizzes. However, there is no end date for Classic for Classic Quizzes as yet.

New Quizzes is a quiz engine that integrates with Canvas as an LTI tool and replaces the classic quizzes functionality currently existing in Canvas.

Instructors can use New Quizzes to create quizzes using a variety of questions types. New Quizzes display as assignments in the Assignments page and can be duplicated. Students can take New Quizzes quizzes within their Canvas courses.

New Quizzes reports, statistics, item bank search, and item bank tagging are not supported in the Canvas beta environment. Outcomes added to Canvas in the beta environment after the beta refresh will not display in the New Quizzes beta environment. Outcomes must be added to the production environment to display in the beta environment.

New Quizzes cannot be used in the Canvas test environment.
