If the Test, Survey, or Pool Manager already exist you will need to click on Modify to add questions.

To add a Fill in the Blank question select Fill in the Blank from the Add Question pull down menu and click on the Go button.

Enter your question and assign a point value for the question.

When adding the correct response you may want to include common mistakes or alternate correct answers.

Feedback is your opportunity to reinforce correct responses or to give corrective feedback.

When you have finished adding text and assigning a point value, click on Submit to add the question.
