If your quiz includes Essay/Short Answer questions, you may want to change the Release Scores setting to release on a specific date. Because this question type cannot be auto-scored, the auto-calculated score does not reflect these questions until the teacher has scored them. As a result, the student's score would appear lower than it actually is.
Fill in the Blank
For Fill in the Blank questions, students fill in the blanks in the entered text, either by typing an answer or selecting an answer from the dropdown list.

Number Line Settings
The following settings apply to Number Line questions:
- Allow Partial Credit: If marked, students receive points for the question based on how many options they placed correctly. For example, if the question had 10 options, was worth 10 points, and the student placed 7/10 options correctly, they would receive 7 points. If the question was worth 5 points, this student would receive 3.5 points. If not marked, the student must place all options correctly to get any points for the question.
- Minimum Value and Maximum Value: The lowest and highest options on the number line.
- Tick Distance and Ticks Per Label: The Tick Distance is the numerical value represented by each tick. The Ticks Per Label value is how frequently ticks are labeled. For example, if the number line goes from 0 to 100 and the Tick Distance is 5, ticks display at 0, 5, 10, 15, etc. If the Ticks Per Label is 2, ticks 0, 10, 20, 30, etc, are labeled.

- Snap to Tick: If marked, when the student places an answer option on the number line, it automatically moves to the closest tick
- Exact Match: If not marked, a Response Accuracy Threshold field displays. If the student places an option within the entered threshold, the answer is marked as correct. For example, if the correct answer is 40 and Response Accuracy Threshold is 3, placement on the number line from 37 to 43 will be considered correct. If marked, the student must place the option exactly correct to be scored as correct. Snap to Tick should also be marked if Exact Match is.
