What does "Included Media" mean in a quiz activity log?

[S222]

When we review activity logs under quiz > build > moderate, it shows under some student written responses "Included Media". What does this mean? Does it indicate that they copy-pasted the answer?

Hi @S222,

Assuming the question is an Essay type, I think that means the student used the tools available in the Rich Content Editor (textbox) to insert an image, video, or audio element to their answer.  Because the log is just basic text, media items really can't be shown so you get that kind of message in place of the media item.

Hope this helps!

When the answer doesn't include any media, just text, I tend to assume the student copy-pasted the answer. I'd really like to know if I'm wrong because I'm basing my cheating suspicion on that. Then I look at the detailed log and often find my suspicion confirmed.
