Questions about this workflow
Can it create correct quiz answers?
Ask Notis to base questions and answers on supplied findings and review the quiz before relying on it for grading.
Does the action add questions too?
The selected action creates a quiz. Adding quiz questions is a separate Canvas action and is not included in this workflow.
What if the research has no clear answer?
Ask for interpretation questions that make uncertainty explicit instead of presenting unsupported conclusions as facts.
