Respondus Exam Manager - Manually Import Exams Into Canvas

The article outlines a two-part process for managing exams in Canvas using Respondus Exam Manager. In Part 1, the user is guided to open Respondus, change settings, open a file, preview, publish, and save it in the QTI XML zip file format. Part 2 instructs how to log into Canvas, navigate to the desired course, import course content, select the appropriate QTI file, and choose or create a question bank for importing. The process concludes with a note on limited support for the new quizzing tool and prompts to hit the "Import" button to finish.
