Is it possible to customize feedback for each incorrect answer in quiz review?

Hi,

When a quiz taker selects "review" and goes through each quiz question to review what her answer was and what the correct answer was, is there a way to customize this? For example, suppose the person missed a certain question. The standard feedback says something like "You answered C". "The correct answer is B". Is there a way to give feedback like this: "You answered C. That is incorrect because acceleration increases when net force increases". The correct answer is B. In other words, I want to tell the quiz taker WHY their incorrect answer was wrong. Is that possible?

Thanks so much for any suggestions!

It isn't possible to customise the text in the Review Area with current Captivate functionality.  Your best approach at the moment would appear to be adding all this explanatory informatiion into the Success and Failure captions so that the learner receives it at the point where they made the mistake.  That way, even if they choose NOT to Review Quiz, you've already told them why they got the question wrong.
