====== Interactivity > Text Correction ======

A page that presents a text including some errors which need to be identified and corrected. The learner edits the text in a text-entry box.  On submission Xerte compares the learner text to the correct version and gives automated assessment; this is simply whether it exactly matches the correct version, or whether there are still differences.

This page type is similar to **Modify Exercise**, except here the learner needs to make the comparison manually.
