When editing a question, instructors will have the option to change the question type. This change will allow instructors to switch a question to any different question type, improving workflows when duplicating questions and adjusting content.
Administrator Content Visibility
Administrators will have view access to all content created by instructors within their organization, empowering them to assist instructors and providing better insight into their organization. Instructors can still choose to share content with administrators to provide additional add, edit, or share permissions.

Organization administrators will have improved user management tools when individuals leave their organization. When an account is removed from the organization, administrators can choose who their content will be transferred to, ensuring that content is never lost due to organization turnover.
Improvements
Easily add Questions to Existing Tests and Question Banks
Adding questions to existing tests and question banks will be expanded to the instructor library, making it easier than ever for instructors to build tests and organize content.

From the question library, instructors will also be able to add questions to an existing question bank.
