Once inside of your DQ, highlight the question by holding down your left mouse button and dragging across the question.

Finally, paste the question into a Word document by holding Ctrl (command/cmd on a Mac) and pressing V on your keyboard or by right-clicking and selecting Paste.
Now that you have copied the question, find your response below. Click on the arrow next to your answer, then copy and paste your response into the same Word document. You can also click on the arrow next to your name on the left to open your responses as well.
