Suppose you want to create a multi-part item, like a reading passage or scenario with several related questions, or a two-stage item where you ask a question and then a follow-up question for the student to explain their reasoning. Assess.ai provides functionality to set this up inside a single item rather than creating several separate items.

Setting Scores for Multi Question Items
Each component of a Multi Question Item can have an individual score or alternate scores table. By selecting a Maximum Score the user is capping the score of an item. An example is when an applicant is being assessed on years experience and education. By capping the Max Score allows the candidate with fewer years experience an opportunity to score higher/equal with their education points.
In order to change the maximum score available for a Multi Question Item:
1. Create the Item and the Multi Questions for the Item
2. Set the score and alternate scores
3. Once the items are created go to the first item within the Multi Question Item and select About:
4. Select Save and Exit
