Allow teacher override for automatically assessed test questions

Sometimes students spell things wrong or have a reasonable alternative and I would like to give them credit or partial credit and override an automatic assessment.

    Yesss!! And then I do give the points in PowerSchool but still if there was a 360 report it wouldn’t be accurate.

    The lack of this function in my opinion renders the test pretty useless. As I have students and their scores on the tests are wrong score because I can't override this. I have to either not use the manual marking or put in an open question at the end to which I can add additional points to to account for this.

    Hi. Thanks for the idea. We will share it with the relevant teams. We will keep the suggestion on the ideas portal to see if it gets more ‘up votes’. This helps us understand which ideas are most popular. Thanks, the itslearning Product Team."
