Helpful Tips
- TAG allows up to 20 alternate correct responses for applicable question types, making it easier to account for variations in student answers.
- Available for: Equation, Short Text, and Inline Text (up to 20 alternate responses per input).
- Copy and edit an item to add alternate correct responses, then update the test key by clicking the answer and the green check mark; save and rescore.
- When alternate correct responses are added, a clickable green check appears when viewing the correct answer; selecting it displays all alternates, sorted alphabetically.
- Alternates can be viewed in Item Search and Preview, when previewing items added to a test, and on the Print Key (an alternate correct table is included after the original answer table).
- In TEKScore, student responses marked correct due to an alternate are identified with an asterisk (*) and note that the response was accepted as an alternate correct.
