Use automatic points adjustment to provide incentives that encourage or discourage student behaviors—for example, guessing or procrastination. You can also make specific assignment questions count as extra credit.

Settings at the assignment level apply to all assignment questions except questions whose settings you specifically change in Questions. Question-level settings override assignment or template settings.

Note Poll question types do not receive automatic bonus or penalty points; answered poll questions always receive the full point value.
