Shared by iQualify • July 21, 2025

Here's what's new:

  • See which pages are unseen, in progress, or complete (viewed the page and submitted any the tasks on the page).
  • See which sections are complete.
  • Better highlighting of the page you were last on.
  • Greater distinction between sections, subsections, and pages.
  • New options to Expand or Collapse all.
  • Keeps the time for a page even after you've viewed it.

Check out the video What's new in Contents to see the key features.

We're hopeful these changes will help people clearly see where they’re at, and what they’ve got left to do!

Partial marks for automarked tasks

Shared by iQualify • July 08, 2025

We’ve got more choice in how learners can be scored in automarked tasks and quizzes! Now your authors can decide if learners can get partial marks on a task and whether points are deducted for incorrect responses.

Let’s take a look at an example where we’ve set the Points for the task to 1.

Now authors can choose whether learners:

  • Need to get the entire question right to get the points for the task (e.g. 0/1 in example above).
  • Get a proportion of the total points for the task (e.g. 0.5/1 for correctly placing 50% of the responses) .
  • Get point(s) for each correct response (e.g. 2/4 for 2 correctly placed responses).
  • Have point(s) deducted for incorrect responses.

Check out How to set the Scoring type and Penalty points for automarked tasks to see more detail on the difference between these options.

New feature

Grant assessment extensions via API

Shared by Lorcan • June 18, 2025

Hi there,

Your organisation can now use our API to grant learners assessment extensions.

Using the API to grant these extensions ensures that the new due dates are then automatically reflected on iQualify reducing confusion about due dates for your learners and their facilitators/coaches.

You can learn more about this feature here and can find our API specific documentation here.

Section starts and ends

Shared by iQualify • April 09, 2025

We’ve added new panels to the first and last pages of a section.

Our hope is that these section start and end panels help to:

  • Let learners know they’re starting a new section (and what they’re in for).
  • Make the transition from one section to another clearer.
  • Show learners how much of that section they’ve managed to complete (before they move on).
