 There are two parts of a **Quiz** delivered through Avenue to Learn, the Quiz and the **Question Library**. Think of the Quiz as the collection of questions a student answers and gets assessed, whereas the Question Library is every single question you could possibly ask. While the quiz is useful for assessing many different types of questions, it does not tend to handle math questions with ease. It may be easier to use an external tool for math questions. ​ There are two parts of a **Quiz** delivered through Avenue to Learn, the Quiz and the **Question Library**.

 Many textboook publishers, like Pearson or McGraw Hill, will be able to provide a question bank for a textbook that you've adopted. If you can get your publisher representative to provide that to you, great! Each publisher has a different process and policy for use of question banks. Many will try to steer you to their proprietary sites (such as Pearson'​s MyLabs or McGraw Hill's Connect) to do your quizzing in those platforms. While those platforms may be useful, they often do not provide any different experience for the student. It's good advice to not force students to jump through unnecessary hoops to do quizzes or other assessments. Anecdotally,​ faculty have had success with using the built-in Avenue to Learn quizzing tool.    Many textboook publishers, like Pearson or McGraw Hill, will be able to provide a question bank for a textbook that you've adopted.

-==== Using the D2L Question Importer ==== 
- 
-If you have never used an online quizzing platform, and have no textbook quiz bank to pull from, you still might be able to make the process of creating a quiz a little faster by using a tool to convert existing Word documents to questions importable into the Question Library. While this software only works in Windows ​
