Why is it that if i get a quiz question wrong all the feedback i get is: "Bummer, that's not the right answer!"
I have no option to try and answer the question again, nor am i pointed in the direction of the correct answer.
I'm unsure of whether this behaviour is specific to the topic, but this format isn't teaching me as efficiently as it could.
Is this just the standard? Am i missing something?

If you put some efforts you learn better to my mind. Then you can answer correctly that question during next pass same quiz.

367 PointsI can agree with that logic if you completely missed the concept of the video, but sometimes it's only a subtle reminder that you need because you missed one small detail. At the very least, it could reference the time in the video or the area in the documentation to look at.
