We added a new feature for multiple choice and short answer questions. Previously, when students missed these kinds of questions, the correct answer would pop up for them right away. Some teachers on Podsie shared that for certain questions, they'd prefer if students did not see the correct answer right away, and instead were encouraged to engage with the 'Deeper Learning' more first in order to deduce the answer.

To do facilitate this, we've added a new field to the question creation form called Number of Attempts until Answer Shown:

By default, this field is set to "1", which means the answer will still show right away (since the student will have attempted the question once). If you want students to take a couple more attempts before the correct answer shows, then you can set it to a value higher than 1.

If you do that, then you are required to provide a deeper learning.

On the student side, this is what they'll see for questions that don't show the correct answer right away:
