Give this task a Title and write a description of the task to students.
Within the Text field, write the sentence(s) that are presented to the User. Around the correct words to mark, place an asterisk on both sides.
Example: “The music was very *loud* at the concert. Even with such a *large* crowd, the band could be heard *clearly* over the noise.
Students would be required to mark “loud,” “large,” and “clearly.”
All characters inside the asterisks are counted as a single response, such as *one response*. If each individual word (or even individual character) is to be its own response, use the format *two* *responses*.
