Multiple choice, all answers correct?

Hi Morten! If you plan on scoring your quiz question, you'll need to indicate a "correct" choice for Quizmaker to be able to score it... however, this doesn't mean that you necessarily need to tell your users that any other choice is 'wrong." Quizmaker uses the "correct" choice to determine which feedback pop-up to display - but even the pop-ups are totally customizable, so you can make the feedback look however you want

In your case, you'd want to use the Score selector on the question editor to choose scoring By Answer. This would allow you to specify a point value for each answer choice. You can also change the Feedback selector to By Answer, so that you can display a different feedback pop-up for each response. It would look something like this:

Here are a couple tutorials on how to customize feedback and how to customize scoring.

Thanks a lot for the instructions, Jeanette.

That helps me overcome the "correct" answer problem.

My next problem is that I don't want feedback after each question/answer (I know how to avoid that) but only feedback in the end based on the user's accumulated score.

And I would prefer if the users don't see their points at all during and after the test. They should only see their feedback.

Is that possible?

Hi Morten - yes, you can definitely remove any points from showing during the test (here's a tutorial that shows how: https://player.vimeo.com/video/204926730).

Regarding showing the feedback at the end, unfortunately there's really not a way to show different result slides based on different scoring brackets; Quizmaker only provides a "pass result" slide and a "fail result" slide. But you could always customize the result slide to contain info about the various scoring brackets and info about how to interpret them. Here's a bit more about how to do that: http://community.articulate.com/blogs/jeanette/archive/2011/05/19/using-quizmaker-09-to-build-magazine-style-assessments.aspx

Great, Jeanette! That last video tutorial was just what I needed.

Thanks a lot!

The above clarification is only for graded Questions.
When i am trying to include the same functionality in Multiple Choice Question it is not allowing me to do this. Is ther any option to give the scores for all the answers in the multiple choice questions?

Please clarifiy me.

Ramesh

Hi Ramesh - are you asking about how to score a Multiple Response question with different point values for each response? I'm sorry, that's not a feature that's currently available in Quizmaker, and here's why:  The challenge with "scoring by answer" in a multiple response is that it would make authoring that type of question really difficult because of the many different combinations of answer choices you would need to anticipate.

Say for example, you have a multiple response question with 3 choices (A,B,C). The possible choices would be:
A
A+B
A+B+C
A+C
B
B+C
C

So with only 3 choices, you have a possible combination of 7 responses. If you increased to four choices (A, B, C, D), then the possible answers would be:
A
A+B
A+B+C
A+B+C+D
A+C
A+C+D
A+D
B
B+C
B+C+D
B+D
C
C+D
D

So now you would have 14 possible answer combinations ... and you can see how this would keep growing like crazy as the number of choices increase.
 
Although it might seem like you should be able to just assign point values to A, B, C (for example, if the correct answer is A+B, you might want to assign 5 points to choice A, and 5 points to choice B, and so on),  unfortunately that doesn't work well, because suppose someone chooses A+B+C? They would get the same score if they had chosen just A+B.

So, because authoring and scoring something like this consistently would become confusing and complex, we don't currently support scoring by answer in a multiple response. I hope it helps to know the logic behind that decision. That said, we do welcome feature requests, so if you would like to see this question type handled differently, we welcome you to share your input with our development team via a feature request.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your explanations. It gives more clarification for my query. Thanks again.

Regards,

Ramesh
