What the heck is this marking me for commas and periods

the grade yourself is rediculous. Waste of time. The exersize itself would be useful if I didn't have to click like 4 times on stuff every five words.

Benjamin, 

this issue is best directed to the support desk.

However, you can reduce it to just 2 clicks after each segment of the dictation - just hit submit and then next at the bottom of the following screen.

No need to look at suggested answers, no need to self-mark if you don’t wish to.

I agree about the marking for commas and periods, it's unfair to lose marks on that. Personally I don't mind grading myself, not sure it makes a difference on the official grade though - I think it's just for fun. 

I learn the most from these activities, thank you Kwiziq!!!!

Thinking back to when I learned English as a child, some punctuation was part of the task. I guess, the question is how punctuation is treated now in French proficiency, oral dictation tests. I did find stepping through the multiple clicks needed for each segment a bit klunky, although not sure how it could be easily improved. Overall, thought this is a great addition to Kwiziq and will be using it lots more. Thanks!
