Creating an Observational Assessment

(See above) The only difference is the Optional Setting.
Changing a Traditional Assessment to an Observational Assessment
If a traditional assessment has already been created, you can update the assessment to an observational assessment from within the folder.
1. Locate the assessment within the folder of your choosing.
2. Click on the three vertical dots to the right of the assessment to show more options and select Edit.
Note: If an assessment has already been created, you can edit the assessment. However, edits are applied to every instance of the assessment in all courses that have not been sent to students.
3. When you come to the Optional Settings page of the assessment check the box Instructor-Led, select next, and Save Changes.
