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.
How can I import outcomes and outcome groups from previous class sections to a new class section/ new term class without having to rewrite all of the outcomes individually?
Instructure has recommended that my institution use You-Attend instead of Roll Call Attendance. I'm having a hard time finding information on it in the guides. Does anyone use You-Attend? Any advice, recommendations, or resources to share?
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
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…
