⚠️ Important Notes on Editing Assessments with Student Data
If you modify an assessment after students have already taken it, their existing data will not reflect the updates (e.g., added or removed questions).
You may see gray boxes in the Assignment Report, indicating that the question was modified after the assessment was taken.
To preserve your original assessment data, we recommend making a copy of the assessment before making edits.
