Why toggleretakability?
By default, all assessments in ResearchReady can be retaken.
If you prefer that your students cannot retake questions, you can toggle the
“retakability” of assessments for each lesson. This feature gives students one
chance to answer a question.
![Page 17: ResearchReady - Content Guides](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051609/546d7948af79596c298b537a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Toggle retakabilityWhile lessons are displayed, click the “Disable lesson retakability” button to turn OFF
the ability to retake questions for that lesson.
The action is complete when the button changes to a lock and reads, “Enable lesson
retakability.”
Note: To switch “retakability” back ON, just click “Enable lesson retakability.”
