Assigning question points

QuizManager gives you the option of assigning points (or weights) to
individual questions. The default point assignment for each question
created in QuizDesigner is one point. You can use these point
assignments in two ways:
• Use the default of one point per question when grading quizzes,
adjusting point values after grading only as necessary for fairness
(if, for example, you notice that one question is overly difficult for
your students, and you wish to reduce its value in the quiz).
• Assign point values before grading the quiz.
