About 3 years ago, I created a file that demonstrates and explains how to give partial credit on a multiple-response question. You'll find that here: TIP: Give Partial Credit on Multiple Response Questions | Articulate - Community

I have created a solution that will give partial credit for partial correct answers. This method will send the correct scoring to the LMS.
The concept is that we are in fact doing multiple quiz questions, all with a single slide.
The original slide is the visual for the user. It collects the correct/incorrect status for each item being questioned and stores them as variables. In my sample, there are 3 questions, each with multiple choices.
In addition to storing the variables, it uses the first slide to submit the results for the first question only. I use a correct object and an incorrect object and use a standard Pick 1 to indicate which 1 is correct. The variable is used to determine which one needs to be selected prior to submitting. Note: Pick 1 does not care if the user selected the object or if we did it through triggers, it only looks at the current status.
After submitting, it will display the feedback screen appropriate to the Question 1 result only.
The next slide immediately converts the variable for the 2nd question into selecting the correct or incorrect object and immediately submits the Pick 1 quiz. So, the user does not see this evaluation process and will not even be aware that they're on a different slide, rather than just moving to the next piece of the feedback.
Again, after reviewing the feedback on slide 2, it moves to the next slide which repeats the process for the 3rd question (repeat as many times as needed).
And finally, the results page thinks you've done a quiz with 3 questions and will calculate based on each of those questions separately.
During actual use, you would move the correct/incorrect objects off screen. Remember, these objects are only reflecting the status of the single question being evaluated on this slide.
If you want to "see" the evaluation process on the 2nd/3rd slides (for dev purposes), then just move the Submit trigger further down the timeline.
It should be possible to convert this for other visual styles such as a basic multiple response, drag and drop, drop down, hotspot, etc. Just be careful during design that you don't give them the ability to select all answers as a way to accidentally get the correct ones.
It should also be possible to compile the feedback into a single feedback form, simply by adding a "When timeline starts" trigger to the unwanted feedback layers, forcing the move to the next slide.

Hi there,
First time using Articulate and was trying Quizmaker but unfortunately have stopped before I could get started due to this seemingly long-standing issue of no partial credits for multiple options. Perplexing to say the least as it seems pretty basic.
I don't have the time to sit down and work out if any of these 'workarounds' and fudges may/may not work, so oh well, it's off to find another 3rd party option!

Hello everyone,
I was hoping someone could guide me about giving partial credits for multiple option questions in storyline, but it seems that after 8 years, we don't have a partial scoring built-in feature in storyline yet. Any idea why not?

Partial scoring would be an extremely helpful built-in feature. Definitely need it as a feature after 8 years without.

Hi, just wondering if there is any update on this? Would love to be able to give partial credit.
- HVfb0f498d-053bCommunity Member
I can't believed this was raised 8 years ago and has still not been implemented. If a course uses lots of multiple response question types and the learners select most of the correct answers every time, it will be very demoralising to always be told they got it wrong when actually they got a large percentage right.

I'd love to see partial credit on quizzes as well. It would be a game changer :)
Hi Adam!
I appreciate you sharing that there is still a need for a partial scoring feature in Storyline!
Since we don't already have this feature in Storyline 360, we are continuing to track customer impact and update our report! I've added your comments so that we updated information. I'll report back to this discussion when I have an update.

Hello Lauren,
Any idea when can we expect a partial scoring built-in feature in storyline? It'd be a greatly useful feature to have.
Regards,
Oscar

Now, in more recent versions we have system variables available, is this possible?
