How marking works

• Single choice and Multiple choice are all or nothing: the student must pick exactly the right option or options.
• Short answer matches the model answer, ignoring capital letters and spaces around it.
• A short answer with no model answer cannot be marked automatically, so it scores 0.
• A question left unanswered scores 0.

What students see

• A list of quizzes for their class, with Take quiz, Scored, Closed or No questions.
• One attempt only. After submitting, they see the date and their score.
• A quiz closes at the end of its due day. With no due date it never closes.
