One may still manipulate the quiz however he/she wants to, please take note of the definitions below and their implications. Review options notes: The attempt - Whether the student can review the attempt at all. Whether correct - This covers both the textual description 'Correct', 'Partially correct' or 'Incorrect', and any coloured highlighting that conveys the same information. Marks - The numerical marks for each question, and the overall attempt score. Specific feedback - Feedback that depends on what response the student gave. General feedback - shown to the student after they have completed the question. Unlike specific feedback, which depends on the question type and what response the student gave, the same general feedback text is shown to all students. Right answer - an automatically generated summary of the correct response. This can be limited, so you may wish to consider explaining the correct solution in the general feedback for the question, and turning this option off. Overall feedback - The feedback given at the end of the attempt, depending on the student's total mark. *Moodle is also applicable to courses using mathematical equations by using DragMATH provided that the PC being used has Java installed.
