Hi Lars,

This is a Course level parameter, so this sets the default value 
for any _future_ enrollments in the _course_.

Yes.

> 3) Assume that a student in a section, say e01, and I have manually changed

Nope, you will have to idvidually delete all of the parameters you
specifically set for this user.
