Introduction
This chapter provides instructions on how to add questions and elements such as text and file attachments to tests and assignments in Blackboard Learn Ultra.
Creating Assignment and Test Questions and Elements
The following questions and elements can be added to assignments and tests in Blackboard Learn Ultra
- Calculated Numeric

Adding text elements, page breaks, or file attachments eliminates the ability to randomize questions within an assessment. Question sets can be used instead to randomly display questions to students.
