I have a quiz set to give partial credit for multiple answer questions but if a student misses a part, it does not give any credit. It is a fractional so I am not sure if that is the issue. Is anyone else having this issue? Any advice?

Can you provide all the details about the question? That is how many correct answers are possible for the question and how was the question answered. with partial credit, each correct answer will receive points and each incorrect answer will receive the negative of what one correct answer will receive. so if there is one correct answer only, then if the student answer the question correctly and selects an incorrect answer, then the point total is a wash and the student gets 0 points.
Here is the instructors guide on partial credit multiple choice questions for new quizzes.

The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
In the "How do I use the Learning Mastery Gradebook" page, under "Student scores" (https://community.instructure.com/en/kb/articles/660932-how-do-i-use-the-learning-mastery-gradebook-to-view-outcome-results-in-a-course#view-student-scores), the displayed gradebook shows a little colorful square and also points for each…
