Regrade a True/False quiz question

Regrade a True/False quiz question

If you accidentally publish a quiz containing a true/false question that later needs correction, Quiz Regrade lets you revise the question and recalculate student grades.

Notes:

  • Quiz Regrade applies only to students who have already submitted an attempt.

  • Adding or removing a question, or changing the point value of a multiple-choice question, does not activate Quiz Regrade.

  • For a true/false question with submissions, adding or deleting an answer removes the option to regrade that question.
