Adding a Server in Respondus
After instructors add questions to Respondus and edit them, the questions can be published directly to Canvas courses, either in Question Banks or Quizzes. If this is the first time publishing, you will need to setup the connection to UHD Canvas. Adding a server requires Administrator rights on your computer. If you are doing this from a campus computer, you may need to contact Help Desk for assistance, 713-221-8031.
Publish Questions to Canvas
1. Click the Preview & Publish tab. (You must already have questions loaded into Respondus,
so go back to the Start tab if needed.) Click the Publish option on the left and
then click Publish Wizard.
2. Select whether to publish questions to a single course or to multiple courses.
If you need the same quiz pushed to more than one course, select the multiple courses
option.
For the second section, you may not already have a saved UHD Canvas option. If that
is the case, select - add new server - and click Next.
3. Select the option to choose for preconfigured server settings and click Next.
4. A window will indicate that preconfigured server settings were configured. (If
you do not get this Success! message, make sure that you are using a Respondus installation
for UHD and not a different school.)
Enter the required settings.
- The name can be whatever you prefer. If you teach at other institutions, you may want to specify UHD in the name to differentiate.
- Enter your login
- Select the Run connection test option and click Next.
You will see message below:
If the connection was successfully made, you will be able to select courses from your course list and publish quizzes or question banks as needed. Be aware that question banks allow questions to be easily reused for additional quizzes.
