            Feedback display scenarios

            Feedback is displayed based on the test settings and the way the assessment is configured. The two primary scenarios include:

            • Practice Mode: When the test is delivered in Practice Mode, feedback will appear after the test-taker submits an answer if it is incorrect.
              • Post-Test Review: If the task settings allow test-takers to review their results, feedback will be shown for incorrectly answered questions after the test is completed.

                Editing Feedback Content

                You can format the feedback text using the built-in editor, which supports rich text, links, images, and multimedia.

                Viewing the feedback

                After completing your question text, answers and feedback, you may access the feedback you entered in the question preview section by following these steps:

                          Why use feedback? 

                          Feedback enhances the learning experience by providing immediate clarification and reinforcement. 

                          It helps test-takers: 
                          • Identify and understand their mistakes. 
                          • Improve retention of correct information.
                          • Gain insights into complex concepts through explanations.
                          • Develop confidence by learning from their errors.

                          By incorporating feedback, assessments become more than just evaluations—they become valuable learning tools.
