Change the correct answer

Note: This option currently has only been tested by ITS with multiple choice questions.

It is strongly recommended that you test the effects of changing correct answers before using this option on a summative test. i.e. Create a copy of the test, complete it as a dummy student using the Become Student tool and then do a test of the effects of changing the correct answer.
