D2L Creator+ Insert Practice offers the ability to embed interactive practice questions in your HTML course content files. Insert Practice questions cannot be synced to the gradebook. They are meant to allow students to check their level of comprehension in preparation for graded assessments. After answering a practice question, students can choose to check their answer(s) to verify if they are correct. Additionally, faculty have the option of providing auto-generated feedback for both correct and incorrect responses. After students check their answer(s), feedback will also be immediately provided along with the correct answer(s).
