Previewing a student's attempt on a quiz
Perhaps it was a glitch on my end, but I used to be able to preview the quizzes as students were taking them by clicking on the ? with the red dot. This would allow me to see where a student was at if it was coming close to the end of class. It would also allow me to click on it to grade the unsubmitted attempt. Now, I…

Change default when displaying questions from a quiz attempt
When my students take a quiz, I don't want them to see the answers until everyone has taken the quiz, so I initially set the view in "Evaluation and Feedback" to 'no questions'. Later, when I change that to show all questions, it doesn't show the points the student got for each question! This is just crazy. I dug about 8…
