What does the Blueprint Course Supports New Quiz Item Banks functionality actually do? What is changing? The summary and change benefit are both very short and vague.

Hello @olden043 ,

More information is in our Updates to New Quizzes and Blueprint Courses Syncing blog in the New Quizzes Transition User Group. In summary, Item banks were not supported when using blueprint courses in the past, they had to be shared individually so some blueprint courses lacked consistency.  Now when using a blueprint course, item banks can be shared to all courses when synced. Hope this helps, please let us know if you have any other questions.
