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?
Yeah, wow, I just rediscovered this problem. I redid some quiz questions thinking "these would work much better as a sorting question"… yeah, no. Now I'm having to go back through and hand-award partial credit. I guess this is why I never used sorting and category questions.
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
