  Self Test module

  Hi,
  
  This is not a problem but rather a suggestion/question. I am converting a course from WebCT to ATutor and comparing the test modules:
  
  The self-test module in ATutor allows only one feedback for the whole test.
  
  The test/quizzes module in WebCT allows a separate feedback for each answer.
  
  It seems to be a very useful feature to have a feedback per answer.
  
  For example,
  
  Yes, this answer is correct, because <some comment> .....
  
  No, this answer is wrong, because <some comment>...
  
  Do you have any plans to make changes to the test module?
  
  Thanks,
  
  Inna

  ATutor does allow for feedback on a question by question basis.
  
  when creating a question simply fill in the Feedback field.

  Yes, I am sorry I was not clear enough, this is what I meant to say -
  
  ATutor has one feedback per question. Which means no matter what the answer is, you still get the same feedback.
  
  I was suggesting to have different feedbacks for different answers. This way you can provide the student with some appropriate information depending on his/her answer.
  
  This is what WebCT does with their self-test module, and we get a lot of positive feedback from the users about this feature specifically.
  
  Any plans to incorporate this into future releases of ATutor?
  
  Thank you,
