Blackboard tests can be copied from one module to another in Ultra. It is also possible to copy tests from modules in Blackboard Original into Ultra Course View. If you have saved Blackboard Original tests as .zip files, you can import these into Ultra. However, if your test includes question types which are no longer supported in Ultra, these questions will not be copied. In this case, or if you have tests which have been created using other systems, they can be migrated, using Respondus, an external piece of software.
Unsupported question types
In most cases, all of the questions will be imported successfully, along with the correct answers and automated feedback. However, it is advised that you check each question to ensure that everything has imported as expected.
