The "copy" language is very confusing to instructors. Even if you didn't change any of the behavior until you had more feedback on usage scenarios, changing the terminology alone would help tremendously to clarify things for users. It is important to use 'copy' to mean 'copy' - a duplicate of the original that instructors can make edits to and use as a new version. If you are going to link, call it "link to question pool." There is great value in linking as changes can happen globally. But, if the behavior is "copy to question pool" (a duplicate), then, it should say 'copy' - not 'assign' to question pool. Adding a function to the action bar on the Questions or assessment page to allow instructors to "Copy Questions to Pool" ALL at once would be AWESOME! My instructors would be absolutely thrilled. Because Samigo does not support importation of pools at the moment, faculty have to create pools from imported tests, sending question items over one at a time. The workflow is cumbersome and tedious. The latter would make the whole process efficient and effective. Thank you for reaching out to us for feedback. Best, Vivie

This will allow the users to export a one-part assessment into a QTI xml and import it into a pool.

Karen Tsao - 27-Feb-2007 10:44 As discussed earlier, in 2.4, we will change the current 'copy Pool' behavior (which is actually creating a linked pool) to creating a real copy. This will be more consistent with the 'copy question' behavior (See bug SAK-8255).
