How do I regrade a True/False quiz question?
If you accidentally published a quiz with an existing true/false question that needs to be corrected, you can use quiz regrade to edit the question and update student grades. Learn more about quiz regrade options.
Notes:
- Quiz regrade only applies to students who have already taken the quiz.
- Adding or removing a question as well as changing the point value for the multiple choice question does not trigger the quiz regrade feature.
- Adding or deleting answers from a true/false question with submissions disables the option to regrade that question.
