How can I create a 25 item matching test that will give credit for each correct answer. For example, if a student gets 20 out of 25 they should get a score of 80%. It seems like the current template only allows all or nothing credit--by that I mean that either you get all 25 matching questions correct--and you get 100 or you get one or two wrong and you get nothing. How can I get a grade (and not see their actual answers) that shows how many out of 25 they got?

It should.....
Go in to create a quiz and you want a graded quiz (so that it will auto-grade) and you'll have to assign it an equal number of points, which you would anyways. So, make your 25 matching. Make the question out of 100 points and it will automatically deduct 4 points for each one incorrect since you have 25 matching worth 100 points. Does that make sense? Here is a multiple-choice from my recent quiz that was only 3 words and I made it out of 12 points and you can see she got one right so she received 4 points. Hope that helps!
