Both System Administrators and Instructors have the permissions to import question bank/exam files into Schoology once they have activated their subscription.

Part 1: Download Question Bank/Exam Files from the Online Instructor Resources

1. From within your course, expand the Resources folder and select "Online Instructor Resources".
   
    
2. The Online Instructor Resources will appear. Scroll down and select the "Assessment Software & Question Pools" section. Note: The Online Instructor Resources will look different than the screen captures below if your copyright edition is prior to 2023.
   
    
3. Expand the Blackboard Learn 9.x section and select the name of the question type zip folder to download (i.e. Exam Questions, Pretest Questions, Posttest Questions, etc.).
   
    
4. Once the file is downloaded, extract the files from the ZIP folder.
   
5. After files are extracted, there will be one ZIP folder for each chapter. Do not extract each chapter folder – leave those zipped.

1. Back in Schoology, select the "Resources" tab.

3. Select "Blackboard (ZIP)", Existing collection (or create a new collection for Question Bank/Exam Files), select the existing collection, create a new folder, and then select the "Next" button.
   
    
4. Click on Attach File to find and upload the ZIP folder for the Chapter 1 ZIP folder saved from the Online Instructor Resources (OIR). Once the upload is Complete, select "Import".
   
    
5. Your zip folder will now begin uploading. Repeat this process until all desired chapter folders and Question Banks have been imported.
