Multiple Choice Partial Scoring with Random Pool Questions

Hi, I'm using Cp9.

I have a Quiz with multiple choice questions using Partial Scoring and it works fine. But if I put these questions in a pool, and use Random Question Slides to assign the questions, the Partial Score option is not available anymore.

So, the questions are always fully scored. Does partial scoring works with random questions in a pool?

Thank you.

You can do partial scoring in random question pools. You need to import using a gft file and set the scores in the gft. I use this for multiple select questions.

My gft file looks like this:

::Which is the right answer?{

~%50%Right Answer 1#

~%-50%Wrong Answer 1#

~%50%Right Answer 2#

~%-50%Wrong Answer 2#

}

You need to leave a blank line between each question.

Yep, according to the Captivate manual, "You cannot set partial scores for multiple choice questions in question pools."

That's too bad.
