Edit or regenerate an exam

Once an exam exists you can change any question by hand, or regenerate the entire exam with different options. Pick the approach that matches the size of the change you need.

Availability: all customers

Edit a single question

Use direct editing for small changes: a clearer wording, a different correct answer, or a better explanation.

1. Open the exam in the editor.

2. Hover over the question you want to change and select Edit.

3. Update the question text, answers, correct answer, or explanation as needed. The fields you see depend on the question type.

4. Select Preview to confirm the question reads well and the right answer is correct.

Tip: Reviewing each generated question once is usually enough to catch the small issues AI sometimes introduces: a vague stem, a distractor that is technically also true, or an explanation that gives the answer away too early.

Regenerate the whole exam

Use Rewrite Exam when you want to start over with new options: a different objective, a different mix of question types, more or fewer questions, or different source documents.

1. Open the exam in the editor.

2. Select Rewrite Exam from the exam toolbar.

3. Adjust any of the following:

• Exam objective — Current Lesson, Current Module, Entire Course, or Custom AI instructions

• Question types — any combination of Multiple Choice, True or False, Ranking, Sorting, and Matching

• Number of questions — 1 to 15

• Source references — all sources, or a subset

4. Select Rewrite. CreateUpon replaces the existing questions with a new set generated from your updated options.

Warning: Rewriting an exam replaces every existing question. Any manual edits to individual questions are lost. If you want to keep some of your edits, copy them somewhere outside the editor before you rewrite.

When to edit, when to rewrite

• Edit individual questions when you like the overall set and just want to fix or polish a few items

• Edit individual questions if you want to change scoring of one question without affecting the rest

• Rewrite the exam when the overall direction is wrong: the wrong scope, the wrong style of questions, or the wrong source material

• Rewrite the exam after large changes to the underlying lessons. The new questions will reflect the latest content
