Students unlock Mastery Tests by redoing the tutorial that goes with it.

Discussions can be redone by adding more to your response. You have to message your teacher so she can regrade it. Course and Unit Activities show up each time they are resubmitted. Discussions can't be formally resubmitted. The teacher has to go into the grade book, find the discussion, read what you wrote, and manually add points. 

Post-tests and the End of Semester test can be taken twice and require the teacher to reset them. The reset has to be 24 hours after the completion of the first try.
