Below mentioned folders contain some data. I need to zip all the folders separately.
ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-1 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-4 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-7 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-3 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-5 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-8 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-2 ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-6
With this Command, I can zip only one folder
zip -r ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-3.zip ItembankUpdate-20210602-NGSS-3
How can I zip all the folders separately at once?

First, make sure that you are in the directory where the above mentioned folders are. Then run:
find . -type d -maxdepth 1 -execdir zip '{}.zip' '{}' ;
This will find all the directories and zip them with the names:
