I used New Quizzes for an introductory survey (all short answers) for students. I set it up where I wanted students to earn the point only after I have reviewed their answers (this makes it easy to see whose responses I've already read). I set it up similar to what is described here in that my first question is worth 1 point and all the remaining questions worth 0 points.
For all the students, I've marked the first question as correct and then scrolled down to Update. This correctly marks the score as 1/1 in the panel on the right and I can add comments. The students now see the assignment as graded when they look at their grades.
I may just have to live with it, but now I still have a whole column of "ungraded" work in the gradebook. I thought I'd previously been able to type over and re-enter the 1 there, but that didn't work. If I click on the ungraded icon, it shows it to be 1/1.
Is there any way to get these to show as graded in the gradebook other than marking each of the questions for each student as correct? With 10 questions and 70+ students, that's too many clicks. I had thought a 0 point question wouldn't have needed a score, but it seems to need one.
So two questions:
1) Is there a way to get an actual grade rather than the ungraded icon to show up in the gradebook I view? Students see a grade. In Speed Grader, I see a grade.
2) How could I have set this up better? What is the best approach for an assignment if there is a mix of questions that are graded and ungraded?
