Assigning Points to Mindmarkers

What the default is and how to adjust it.

Mindmarker Points

When mindmarkers are created, they can be assigned a point value. Points are used to help learners monitor their progress and are the basis for rankings on program Leaderboards (if enabled). 

Default Point Values

Each mindmarker type is assigned a default point value when created. This default value can be adjusted at any time within the allowable scale. Default point values and scales by mindmarker type are:

Mindmarker Type Default Value Scale

    How Mindmarkers Are Scored


    For all mindmarkers, participants can earn full points by completing them within 7 days of receipt.  After 7 days, the maximum a participant can receive is 50% of the point value.  For questions with correct answers (e.g. Knowledge Check), users receive no points for incorrect answers.
