Hi, @Steven.M.891,

Thanks for reaching us through the Brightspace Community.

Updating questions and answers in the Question Library will not reflect on quizzes previously created with those questions.

That said, you will now have to update this question in all your quizzes. This is how you can quickly update all students' attempts for a quiz:

In the Quizzes tool, click the down arrow right next to the desired quiz and click 'Grade':

Then, go to the 'Questions' tab.

Now, select 'Update all Attempts' and click the question you would like to modify the answer.

Under Grading Type, you will select 'Give to attempts with the following answer _____ points'.

Then just type in the desired modification and click 'Save'.

Here you can find more info on this topic:

Hi Steven

The question in the Question Library (QL) is most likely a different version than what appears in the quiz. Presuming the question in the quiz was imported from QL (at which point the question id number in the database would match) then when the edit was made there would have been a prompt asking whether or not this change should propagate to any copies or not.

If the quiz itself has not been updated to match the new correct answer then it will be necessary to either (a) manually adjust the quiz scores or (b) edit the quiz to match the QL. However option-b will only impact future attempts and none of those already taken.

You would need to reach out to Support to verify things like the question id being the same but I think what you want to know most is whether you're stuck adjusting the scores for recent attempts. I'm afraid to say, "I think so".

I hope that's helpful

Hi @Sofia.J.331 Once a quiz has been taken, it is still possible to update its maximum score, but only through its associated Grade Item in your course Gradebook.
If the quiz grades have already been published in the Gradebook, you must retract its feedback, edit the grade item's max points, and then republish its feedback:

Retracting feedback on existing attempts:

• Go to Quizzes
• Click the down arrow right next to the Quiz you wish to modify the Max Points for
• Click "Grade"
• Click the upper left check box to select all users' attempts and click "Retract Feedback"

Updating Grade item's current max points:

• Go to your course Gradebook
• Click the down arrow right next to the desired Grade Item
• Select "Edit"
• Under "Grading", modify the Max points as desired
• Save and Close

Finally, republishing your students' scores

• Go to Quizzes
• Click the down arrow right next to the Quiz you wish to modify the Max Points for
• Click "Grade"
• Click the upper left check box to select all users' attempts and click "Publish"
• Save and Close

In this case, students' scores will be proportionally updated according to the new Max Points assigned to the Grade Item.

Let me know if this helps.
