In multiple answer question, how do I set up the points for automatic grading (e.g. one point pr correct answer two out of three possible)?
Thanks Ron.
Got an answer from Instructure: What I want to do is not possible in nwe quizzes. Understand it or NOT.
Case is, a colleague set up an exam in new quizzes with both multiple choice and multiple answer questions. For the latter, he wanted the students to get partial credit, e.g. one point pr correct answer ticked and chose the Partial credit with penalty-option.
The multiple answer questions where not automatically graded – each of them came out with zero points and had to be manually graded.
The reply from Instructure was: Multiple answer questions only award students marks if all the answers they have chosen are correct.

When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Has anyone had a chance to try this with a Canvas quiz? Seems it may have a similar effect as ChatGPT Atlas able to provide all the answers to an open Quiz. https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/05/microsoft_adds_a_sidepane_for/
When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
