During this session, we will look at the new question types that are appearing on STAAR and other various assessments and how you can emulate them in Canvas. We will look at options such as "Dropdown", "Inline", "Drag and Drop", "Hot Spot" and more. This is a great way to start getting students prepared as well as have a valuable resource for student feedback on different question types. Bring your device and some types of questions you'd like to learn how to create in Canvas and leave with a pre-made quiz.
