There should be a toggle in the New Quizzes feature set that requires answers to be answered and not allow students to submit blank or unanswered questions. 

I would like to see an additional grading option for Multiple Answer quiz questions in which the penalty points deducted for each incorrect answer = the total points for the question divided by the number of INCORRECT answers, rather than the number of correct answers.

This way overly harsh penalties won't be imposed in questions having more incorrect answer choices than correct ones, but the question score will still be zero if ALL answers are selected in an attempt to game the question.  Right now, the penalty point deduction calculation can harshly reduce such a question's score to zero even if all correct answers are chosen + just some incorrect answers. 

This option should address concerns that many of my colleagues, other users, and students have raised about confusion and dissatisfaction with grading of such questions.  This option should be programmable using the same kind of algorithm as is presently used in the calculation of penalty points based on the number of correct answers.

When choosing the numerical entry question in new quiz, the mathquill does not populate thus not allowing students to enter exponents, fractions, radicals etc as numerical answers.  Please fix this.

I use a Canvas quiz with multiple attempts to help introduce concepts and math practice as prelab for my chemistry labs. I use a lot of formula questions, and it would be really nice if I could select an option that would show answers for only formula questions in the quiz. This way the students could retry their work before retaking the quiz.

Could you please put it on the road map to enable the ability to "duplicate answers" for the "Categorization" type quiz questions.

Currently I have a 3 category question where 2 of the categories are using the same answer and it won't allow it. Instead I will now need to create 3 separate multi answer questions. 

Thanks for the consideration.

Back to when Ordering Questions were introduced in New Quizzes in 2018, there was the option to show answers in a paragraph. That means that answer choices will be displayed inline.

But this time, depending on the width of the screen, I want the answer choices shown on two columns. That came to mind from a math worksheet back to my 3rd-grade years, where the first few questions are free-response, while the remaining questions are multiple-choice (some questions with one column, others with two). What if there are more than 10 answer choices? We don't want to scroll up to see the rest!

(Mobile device screens can only show one column due to the Responsive Layout.)

(We wanted to show the concept of this idea, but a problem occurred with the image.)

An example of a question with answer choices on two columns

On English tests, we use multiple choice questions to have students choose correct diction, word usage, etc. We only provide the correct response and the most commonly made error as possible choices. We created several hundred questions in item banks listing the correct response first intending to rely on the quiz's ability to shuffle the answers. When we previewed the tests, we learned that the system always places to correct answer second. We believe that the shuffle feature should shuffle even if there are only two possible choices.

I really like the vary points by answer for multiple choice questions.  With auto-grading, students can get feedback immediately and I can include a short comment about a common mistake associated with that specific incorrect answer while recognizing that most of the work was correct.  BTW, I teach math at the secondary level and exact answers are important so numeric and formula questions are not a viable option most of the time.  The problem with only using MC is that some students are good guessers or work backwards and I need to check for understanding of the standards.

Since Fill in the blank questions are also auto-graded and support free response, I'd love the same ability to give partial credit and feedback.  Since the RCE is not available for these answers (and I understand why - mathquill returns an image, not LaTeX, so cannot be auto-graded), I want to be able to correct syntax but still give most of the points, or again indicate the common mistake.

There are many professors in our University needing to include negative marks for wrong answers in Multiple Choice questions. This seems a reasonable enough option for New Quizzes.
