The entire question text is searched for that word, rather than assigning keywords to the questions themselves. Currently this is a case-sensitive search.</p> <p>The internal question ID's stored in the dabase cannot be seen within the Maple T.A. interface.</p> <p>Sincerely,</p> <p>Carl</p> <p>Dear Mike,</p> <p>With 'Keyword' search you can find any questions in your class that contain a specific word within the text of the question.
