Then, fill in the fields 'Max. options' and 'Max. points.' The 'Max. options' field indicates how many answers a learner can check. For example, if set to '4', a learner can select a total of four answers.

Use the 'Max. number of points' field to specify how many points a learner can earn in total with this assignment.
Additionally, you can also indicate whether the answers should be displayed in a random order. Turn this off if you want to enforce a fixed order.
Next, enter the answer options. You will also find the option to provide specific feedback for each answer. This feedback is shown when the learner selects the respective answer.
