New Feature in Rise 360: Question Banks
Apr 05, 2022
Rise 360 just keeps getting better. Today we released a new feature called question banks.
Thanks to question banks, you can now create randomized quizzes in Rise 360 by drawing from a bank of prepared questions. This is especially useful when you want to make sure learners see something different each time they retake a quiz.
With the quiz question bank feature, you can create a set of questions once, and reuse that bank as many times as you want in the same course or even across multiple courses. What a huge timesaver!
You also have the flexibility to use question banks for knowledge check blocks or quizzes—giving you options for how and when you want to check or test a learner’s knowledge.
To create a quiz question bank, click Question Banks and select New Bank.
Give your question bank a name and select Create Question Bank.
From there, create and add questions to the bank just as you would when building a quiz lesson.
And there’s no limit on how many question banks you can create. To help you stay organized, you can organize your question banks into different folders. For example, you could create a folder for each course or topic.
And if you’re an Articulate 360 Teams subscriber, you have even more ways to work together. With question banks, you can easily share question bank folders with other team members to ensure consistency across your organization’s courses. You can even assign different roles to each member—manager, editor, or viewer— depending on the level of access they need.
We think you’re going to love this new Rise 360 quizzing feature and can’t wait to hear what you think!

I tried to draw from a question bank. However, the course is not moving ahead from the 1st question.
Hello Development Team,
Is there a plan to provide an option to share a question bank with non-subscribers for content accuracy? (non-LXD employees) Where I work, we need SMEs not on our team to review the questions. This will save us hours of rekeying into Rise. Thanks.
Hell DeeMichele,
If you need to share your question banks with colleagues who do not have an Articulate 360 subscription, you can create a new Rise 360 course and then do the following:
This will have the added benefit of being able to accept comments from your SMEs that you will then be able to reference later when when needing to make edits to the question banks.
Thanks for your reply. That sounds good. I’ll create the course and attach the question bank.
Hello all. Not sure if it has been mentioned already, but within a lesson knowledge check, I cannot find the "number of questions in drawer" option. It is present in a Quiz, just not the knowledge check. Why is this? How do I find it?
Hi Stuart!
Currently, the Number of questions in draw option isn't included in the Knowledge Check blocks. We're tracking requests for this feature and we'll let you know of updates that can help!
Hi. Is there an eta for the option of being able select a specific number of questions at random from a question bank? We really need this functionality.
Thanks,
Ian
Hi Ian,
It's currently possible to select a specific number of questions at random from a question bank (as shown below).
