In other words +, a problem with weight of three and two parts will be printed as two separate +problems each with a weight of three. Multi-response questions require the +student to get all numbered responses correct to get the problem correct. You +can tell the difference between a multi-part and multi-response question online. +For multi-part questions, each part will have its own submit answer button. +\item Option response and match response submissions are scored leniently. This means if an option response question gives four foil statements to the student and is worth a weight of 4, each foil will be scored for one point. If there are multiple option or match responses in one part, then the entire problem is scored leniently regardless if each response is in its own part. This is different behavior from all other response types. +\item Essay, formula, and string response questions must be hand-graded. The instructor can hand-grade online or indicate the grade on the scantron sheet. If the hand-graded question should receive 5 points then the letter E is bubbled in. If the hand-graded question should receive 15 points then J is bubbled in on the first line (10 points) and E is bubbled in on the second line (5 points) for a total of 15 points. If the question should receive no credit, then nothing is bubbled in. +\end{itemize} + \section*{Setting the Question Type } \begin{itemize} @@ -233,22 +247,22 @@ date, and answer open date just like you \begin{itemize} \item There are three kinds of communication functions available in LON-CAPA: -chat, discussion, and internal email.
