tool?

Instructor goes to edit a survey and they see the survey on screen as it looks to the student with some instructions at the top (how to edit). They mouse over the title, instructions and items (questions) in the survey and an edit icon appears. Clicking the icon or the item causes it to change into an edit view of that item. They enter new data and click Save (or cancel). The item data is saved without a page refresh and the new data is visible in the view (as the student would see it).
