Subtract Ignore Quiz Question Points From Final Result Slide

Sep 19, 2016

Hello all,

I have a two question quiz in the course. The questions must be attempt and the students are only required to get one question correct to pass.

Here is the catch. If the students omit one question and answer right on the other.  It's considered a fail because they didn't attempt both.

Is there a way to subtract the points from correct answer question from the final (%Results.ScorePercent%% (%Results.ScorePoints% points)?

This would show (0) failed since the ignored question would void their correction answer.  Hope I am clear.

Thank in advance.

Hi Ted,

My first thought was to suggest setting up your quiz to submit all at once, which would allow users to skip questions. However, those questions would still be counted in the overall total.

A few other folks in the community have asked questions similar to yours. You might find a creative workaround in this forum thread, or this one

I hope this helps!

Hi Ted,

Alyssa is correct that all questions will need to be tracked by your results slide if you want those to be included in the final score. So this does mean that if the users skips one or doesn't ever see it, they'll still be scored negatively against that question. 

I'd look at the two forum discussions she linked to as other ideas/workarounds and hopefully others in the community can share their expertise for what they've done too.
