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

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.
