I have this brief multiple choice question.

[https://teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilder/custom/632df52f067ea2060d5c7fbe](https://teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilder/custom/632df52f067ea2060d5c7fbe)

The summary view shows if students are incorrect with an X. However, it does not provide a check mark when they are correct.

How do I get the check mark in the summary view?

You can’t get a checkmark whenever you ask students to write/explain something. It’s a desmos design decision. If you want to get around that, you would need to do something like ask them for their answers on one screen without asking them to explain. Then on the next screen, you could pull their answers from the previous and say “On problem 1 you said… please explain…”, etc.

OK. Thanks for the reply.
