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.

But whenever I go into editing, the formatting in some of them breaks down: the video size shrinks down, or I'm left with an empty blank space. I think I've narrowed down the cause of this issue: Some of these…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
