How do I edit an item within an assessment in Mastery Connect?

After you create an item within an assessment in Mastery Connect, you can edit the item you drafted as long as the assessment is still in draft state. You can edit the item's name, standard, destination item bank, content, and other settings.

Note: When an assessment moves out of draft state, you can no longer edit the items. The items become published and uneditable when the assessment is created and moved out of draft state. You can clone published items.
