Download 2 Quizzes – formatting Qs for import to iLearn

Formatting your questions ready for importing to the iLearn question bank
If you haven’t already, set up Question Bank categories
1. In word format your questions as shown in the box below
2. Remove ABSOLUTELY ALL formatting, bullet or number points, page
numbers, instructions to students, tabs, shading, text colour etc.
3. Save later drama, be exact.
4. Cut and paste into a text file or save as a txt file
In theory you can import multiple formats in one go. In practice I find it better to
make a separate document for each type of question and import them separately.
