RE: Option to not mark all options in multiple-choice questions. [ Reply ]

On the R/exams side there are only schoice questions (single-choice, where exactly one answer alternative is correct) and mchoice questions (multiple-choice, where each of the answer alternatives can either be correct or not).

Many learning management systems (LMS) additionally require that in mchoice questions there is at least one correct and at least one incorrect answer alternative.

But I wouldn't be aware of LMS that provide options for a certain fixed number of correct answer alternatives. And hence there is also no infrastructure for that on the R/exams side.

Option to not mark all options in multiple-choice questions. [ Reply ] By: Amelia Garcia Luengo on 2025-08-05 14:33	[forum:50098]
In multiple-choice questions where only one option is correct, you can only mark once. But in multiple-choice questions where there is more than one correct option, it lets you mark them all. Is there any command that allows you to indicate that only a certain number of times can be marked? Thank you very much.
