I've just started using
Moodle for a course (more on that later), and I wanted to import some questions I wrote using ExamView into Moodle. Although our version of Moodle (1.8?) suggests that it can import EvamView questions, it failed for me. I came across this
post that suggests that it isn't even supported - at least not by the company that makes ExamView. Based on that post, here's what I ended up doing:
- From ExamView Pro (version 4.0.8) export as Blackboard 5.x, which is a zip file.
- Unzip the zip file.
- Import the .dat file into Moodle as a Blackboard, not Blackboard V6+
(And, all of this is made more complicated by the fact that I've basically abandoned the PC for the Mac, and I only have a version of ExamView for the PC. Praise be to VMware for
Fusion.)
There may be a simpler way to do this, but it works, which is all that matters right now. It would be swell if I could automate the process...
enjoy,
Charles.
