In New Quizzes, Item Banks are owned by an individual, and not tied to a Canvas course account. This has all kinds of messy ramifications and raises many questions:

1. How can support staff continue to build quizzes and item banks for instructors? The support staff would de facto "own" all the Item Banks - an impossible mess. We have 1000 Canvas courses a year in my college alone, and 15,000 a year across campus.

2. What PRACTICAL methods exist for Instructors to organize all the Item banks created for every Classic question group, in every quiz, in every course they teach? These will all appear in one personal storage space with no indication of which course(s) or quiz(zes) uses the bank.

• Additional complications: Item banks do not need to have unique names!
• There is no info about where Item Bank is used (which Canvas courses)

3. What happens when the instructor leaves the institution or the course is passed on to a new instructor? The original instructor may still be teaching different courses.

• There seems to be no ability to pass the course's question bank ownership to the new instructor.
• The item bank may be used in other course's quizzes the original instructor is teaching AND by the new instructor of the passed over course.
• The item banks cannot be duplicated within the system (yah, you can export and import but that's not an obvious duplication method).

The lack of connection of the Item Banks to specific courses is a complete roadblock for higher education support and rollout from my observation point.
