Can New Quizzes please allow partial credit on these types of questions? It frustrates students and I spend way too much time going back through them to award points.
Hi @ReneeNicholls
In a quick review of Idea Conversations in this Community (I know, not the most intuitive name for that function), I found the following idea conversation: Partial credit for matching, categorization and sorting question types in Quizzes Next.
Check it out, add your comments, and rate the idea is you desire.
Good luck,

Thanks to everyone who has participated in this thread. New Quizzes: Partial Credit for Matching Questions is currently in development, so please subscribe to the thread to receive updates.
I would also like to have partial credit given on matching questions, and I agree it is tedious to have to go back and change.
How has partial credit for categorization questions STILL not been addressed? This makes New Quizzes virtually useless to me. What is even the point of having new tools if basic functionality isn't there. Its like buying a new car, then realizing it doesn't turn left, it only turns right. But hey, it has a nice sound system.
1,558 days since this was first requested. I'm still waiting... ð
It's now 1,774 days since this was requested. Canvas!!!! Who thought all or nothing is the best way to grade this? And since it is all or nothing, why can we change the value of the question?
I haven't used that question type in a while, so I thought I would try it. 2 Categories, 3 things in each: So I made it worth 6 points. a student put 5 of them in the right spots, then comes up after the quiz and incredulously shows me 0/6. It was the only mistake they made on their quiz. I had to reassure them that they would get the points for the knowledge they showed. Their grade before I gave partial credit was in the 70s. After I gave partial credit it was a 96.%
Other question types can get partial credit, so why not categorization?
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
