The QuizToText converter tool allows you to export your quiz questions from Brightspace and then convert them into a text format. The QuizToText Converter tool will accept your questions as a Brightspace package (ZIP file) and convert your quiz questions into a text or HTML file. 

NOTE: The QuizToText converter tool is only able to convert the following question types: True/False, Multiple Choice, Multiselect, Written Answer, Short Answer and, Fill-in-the-Blank.

Exporting your Quiz using the quiz converter has three process stages: Exporting the quiz, downloading the zip file, and uploading the quiz file.

  4. Select the downloaded ZIP file you wish to convert. 
  5. The converted ZIP file will start to download automatically. This ZIP file will contain two files: 
    • A .txt file which is best suited to text only quizzes that have no images. 
    • A .html (HTML) file which is better suited for quizzes with images and text. You can copy the contents of this HTML file into another document and save it as a PDF for later viewing.
NOTE: The QuizToText converter makes no distinction between a question, answer, feedback, or hint, so some clean-up of the resulting text files will be required.
