• Bonus
  This marks the question as a bonus question, which means the number of points awarded with this question will be counted until the maximum amount of points achievable for this assignment is reached. The points of the bonus question are not included in the maximum amount of points that can be achieved for the assignment If the student answers the question incorrectly, this will not be detracted from the number of points and the mark.
  
  
• Skippable 
  You will first need to assign which students are exempted from answering this question within the settings of your course. You can then enable which questions can be skipped by these students. For written assignments, skippable questions will include a content_cut icon to indicate that students with the right to skip questions are exempt from answering them. Please note that if a question in a written assignment is set to 'Skippable', this icon will appear on all written assignments, including for students who do not have the right to skip exercises. The number of points for this question will not be counted in their results. It is not possible to change this setting after the test has been taken.
  
  
• Start on a new page 
  A new question will begin on a new page.
  
  

• Separate answer boxes
  When creating a question, it is possible to add extra answers in the answer boxes. By default, all answers will be in one box. If this option is enabled, the answers will be separated.

  

• Partial Scoring
  Students will receive points when their answer is partly correct. For example, if the total number of points they can receive for a question is 2 and their answer is 50% correct, they will still receive 1 point. Without this option, they can only receive 0 or the maximum number of points.

• Model answer
  A solution for the reviewers (and for participants when published). The model answer can be an extensive elaboration, an image, or a file.
  
  
• Start with zero points (For the points-per-criteria and rubrics grading method only)
  If this option is enabled the marking of this question will always start at zero points and the points will be added up when selecting the criteria. When this option is disabled, the marking will start with the maximum amount of points that can be awarded for this question and selecting the criteria will be subtracted from this maximum. This means that the criteria should be added as minus points of the total amount. The reviewer can then select the criteria if the student did not meet this with their answer, so it can be detracted from the total amount of points.
  
  
• Limit minimum to zero points (For the points-per-criteria grading method only)
  With this option enabled, it’s not possible to go below zero points when selecting the different criteria. It is still possible to manually adjust the number of points to go below zero with the adjustment option during the reviewing.
  
  
• Limit maximum to total points (For the points-per-criteria grading method only)
  In the grading settings it’s possible to set the maximum amount of points achievable with the question, separate from the points per criteria. When this number deviates from the maximum amount achievable by adding up the criteria points, this option will cap the maximum amount of points to this manually set number.
