  2. Choose Attempt grade under the section titled When published, display to learners.
  3. Under the attempt grade checkbox, use the dropdown to decide which questions will display to learners when results are published. Your options are:
  • Incorrect questions only, with correct answers
  • Incorrect questions only, without correct answers
  • All questions, with correct answers
  • All questions, without correct answers
