Multiple Choice - Penalty for wrong answers

Hai Moodle Team,

I am new to Moodle and I am using Moodle 2.5

I am trying the grading method for multiple choice questions. Based on the students point of view, If answer is not known clearly they simple answer any one of the four option given.  To avoid that, I want to implement negative marks for wrong answers.  Either the question may in True/False mode or Multiple Choice Mode.

Hoping that this will make students to read the questions properly.  Your suggestion will help us configure moodle successfully in our college and will engage moodle for all branches in our college.

You can do that.

When you create the questions, set a negative grade for each wrong answer.

I checked that. But the negative grade is not applied to the students.

In the quiz settings, what is 'How questions behave set to'?

Preview a question, and try various different values for that settings to see what happens.
