HI All, I know that the general authoring preference is to leave things as generic as possible to let instructors set things at the course level, but we have some content used in very specific contexts and not really generalizable beyond those contexts. To facilitate uniform usage there it would be convenient to code a default behavior into the multiple choice questions of not providing feedback until the answers date is reached. I'm guessing this is possible but can anyone confirm and provide the necessary code, similar I'm assuming to the code below for hard-coding the time limits?
Thanks as always, Doug Douglas Mills Director of Instructional Technology Department of Chemistry University of Illinois On 9/7/18, 11:01 AM, "LON-CAPA-users on behalf of Raeburn, Stuart" <lon-capa-users-boun...@mail.lon-capa.org on behalf of raeb...@msu.edu> wrote: Mark, Yes, by adding something like this to the XML of the problem, where the default value (500) is the time-limit (in seconds): <parameter name="interval" type="date_interval" default="500" description="Time-Limit" /> In the table view of parameters (in course context) for the specific resource, the default value set in the published problem will be displayed in the Resource level (default) column. If the problem has been imported into a course, and a Course Coordinator preferred not to use a time limit, this parameter could be overridden by setting the time limit to 0, using a column to the right of the Resource level (default) column, e.g., the" in Course, for Resource" column.
