Using the Spell Checker
You may use the spell check function an entire test or a single question. When viewing a question bank, the spell check
function does not check the answer choices for Bimodal questions shown as Short Answer. Spell check does not check
dynamic content.

appears on the screen.

If you are entering a question with an open-ended response (e.g., short answer), you must
separately check the spelling in the question and then in the answer. Position the cursor in
the section you want to spell check.

numbers, and mixed-case words. Click Options to change these settings.
