Individual points for multiple response questions
Hi there,
I have a quiz which contains multiple response questions. How can I award 1 point for each correct selection?
Currently if the user selects one correct answer but not the other they are awarded no points. I have seen in a previous post that you can select 'to score by choice' but this option doesn't appear in the drop down.
I also have a drag and drop question where I would also like to award one point for each correct drop.
Any ideas would be great!

The variable I added is for the logic only. Storyline does not allow us to directly access or change the scoring variables, so I add the points using the "hidden" question slides. The triggers add the points as needed in those hidden slides. The first question pair uses a true/false question to add the extra point when needed to the first multiple choice question. The multiple choice question has more than one value that might need to be added, so I show how to add the additional points using an additional multiple choice question, with the correct score values in the answers. This way the score value is correctly updated, and may be sent to the LMS.

Thank you Dave.
How do we send the score value to the LMS? As far as we understand you can only use a results slide to do this.

Hi Dave,
We're slowly getting there but we're still having some problems.
Our first question is a multiple choice with two correct answers.
We've created two True False question slide afterwards, one for each correct answer, which will be hidden. These will change to true when they've got each answer correct. When you get both answers correct you are awarded two points and this works! However if you only get one answer correct you should receive 1 point but this isn't working.

Thanks Dave for the really in depth dissection. We understand how you've got this to work now, and have managed to replicate it ourselves. Now we just have implement it across a bank of 32 questions!
If you're ever in York, UK we owe you a beer.

I'm really glad you got that to work. I'm hoping to make it to the UK one day, but I'm not much of a beer drinker, so we might have to make that a tea.
Super collaboration here, guys. Thanks so much for hashing it out! For the record, I like beer and tea, both.

Hi, this question is for Dave.
I have been working on this same problem, I thought that I was getting it to work, but found that the hidden slides are adding additional points to the total possible points that the quiz uses for grading. I may have missed a step? My quiz had 26 possible points, but after adding a hidden true & false question and a 3 point multiple choice (similar to your example) the total possible is now 30. Is there a way for the quiz results not to include the value of the hidden slides when figuring to the score?
Thanks for your assistance!!

Thank you, I will give this a try.

I have looked at your project and am stumped as to how you "hid" the two slides in the project?

Has anyone tried partial scoring for Match Drag and Drop questions? If they receive 3 correct and one wrong answer, since the scoring is by question, they receive 0 points right now. It would be great if they received partial points for correct answers. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Meenu,
Partial credit is not a feature we currently have, although it's something users have shared their thoughts on in the form of a feature request.
Take a look at this conversation where a community member offered their workaround for a drag and drop interaction!

Wow, I'm kind of surprised that after 4 or so years partial credit still hasn't gotten on Articulate's radar for updates and that the solution so far seems to be to redirect users to make a request then look at old postings of other users who were redirected... Sounds like a great way to dodge a solution. If you could see the number of tabs I have open for this one: Whew!
