Editing an Assessment With Existing Attempts

Issue/Question

Can I make changes to a deployed assessment if students have already taken it?

Environment

• Blackboard

Resolution

Instructors can change the point value of questions, remove questions, and change the correct answer, even after attempts have been recorded. Blackboard will automatically make the appropriate adjustments to completed attempts when the edits are submitted.
Note: Instructors cannot make the above changes to assessments if an attempt is in progress; instructors must wait until the attempt has been completed before changes can be made.
