        • Question Retries - The student receives a penalty for the question if they require multiple tries to get the question correct. This can only apply to standalone questions and questions in Progressive Quiz. The default modifier is -10%.

    2. In the XP and Level tab, under Level Progression Settings, you may fill in the following details:

      a. Base XP and XP Increment Per Level - This determines how XP to Next Level will be changed over different levels.

      • Base XP is the number of XP required for students to get from Level 1 (Base Level) to Level 2 (Next Level).

      • XP Increment Per Level is the difference in XP requirements to Next Level from the previous level. This causes the XP required to Next Level to increase as the level of the student gets higher.

        Calculation for XP required to Next Level = Base XP + (Current Level - 1) x XP Increment per Level

    Note: The Level Summary will be changed in real-time as changes are made in the two class input fields.
