Learn@UW Quiz Question Importer Tool | Technology Solutions for Teaching and Research
The Learn@UW / Desire2Learn Question Importer Tool allows you to easily create Desire2Learn-ready CSV (comma separated value) files from existing quiz or exam documents. You can copy your question & answer text into the tool directly from programs such as Microsoft Word, iWork Pages or any other word processing/text editing programs, and after some slight reformatting and simple markup addition, quickly import your questions & answers into a D2L Question Library.
At this time, the generator can only format the following question types for import into D2L: Multiple Choice, Multi-select (multiple answer), True/False, Long Answer (essay), Short Answer (also works as “fill in the blank”), Matching & Ordering.
Complete documentation is available at: https://academictech.doit.wisc.edu/files/D2L question tool documentation.pdf (PDF, 109 KB)

Edgeless University: why higher education must embrace technology : JISC
British Universities have world-class reputations and they are vital to our social and economic future. But they are in a tight spot. The huge public investment that sustained much of the sector is in jeopardy and the current way of working is not sustainable. Some are predicting the end of the university as we have known it.
The Edgeless University argues that this can be a moment of rebirth for universities. Technology is changing universities as they become just one source among many for ideas, knowledge and innovation. But online tools and open access also offer the means for their survival. Their expertise and value is needed more than ever to validate and support learning and research.
