Hello,
At the end of Fall 2018, it will no longer be possible to create or assign new EEE Legacy quizzes.
Instructors and TAs will be able to access quiz content and results through the end of Winter 2020. In order to prepare, instructors and TAs should retrieve copies of past quiz content and results, then administer future quizzes in Canvas.
You can export EEE Legacy Quiz content in a format ready to import into Canvas, which offers a robust quiz and survey tool:
- Get started by creating a Canvas course space via EEE GrandCentral:
https://grandcentral.eee.uci.edu
- Download past EEE Legacy Quiz results:

- Learn how to export EEE Legacy Quiz content for import to Canvas:

For help with Canvas, email eee-support@uci.edu or call the OIT Help Desk at (949) 824-2222.
To reiterate: Fall 2018 will be the last term in which it will be possible to create and assign new content through EEE Legacy Quiz. You should now begin to save copies of past quiz contents or results that you may need later.
