Dear All,
Does anyone know if you can prevent the deduction of points in multiple answer questions in a test? We use BB 7.3 but information on other versions would be useful as well. The default is that any incorrect answers are deducted from the number of correct choices in a multiple answer question.
From the online manual it appeared that the extra credit function would do this but it doesn’t. According to the manual: ‘This option allows the Instructor to make the questions an extra credit questions as opposed to a regular question. If this option is selected points are added to the score if the questions is answered correctly; no points are taken away if the questions is answered incorrectly.’ Certainly does not do that automatically as far as I can tell. Can anyone shed any light on what ‘extra credit’ actually does and how it works?
Any responses much appreciated.
