Match Table Grid Question

A Match Table Grid shows a grid: rows are the prompts, columns are the answer choices, and students pick the right cell in each row. It’s a quick way to ask several questions that share the same choices. Classwork.com scores it for you.

Options (both editors)

• Can have multiple correct answers per row: cells become checkboxes instead of single-choice circles.
• Keep all columns the same size (on by default).
• Allow Partial Credit: students earn part of the points for each correct match. For example, 2 of 3 correct earns two-thirds.
• Subtract points for incorrect answers (with partial credit, and selected by default): each wrong selection takes points away, which discourages guessing. Choose Do not subtract points for incorrect answers to turn it off.

What students see

Students see the grid and click a cell in each row. Without partial credit, the question is correct only when every match is right.
