If I put the exact same problem into a sequence twice (or more) does 
the random seed change each time for a student so that they see a 
different set of foils on the second instance? The basis for the 
question is, I've written a killer question with 8 concept groups, each 
with 3-5 foils, but I want the students to exercise on them without 
putting too many foils per page (4 max?), yet see most or all of the 
concept groups by having them see the problem multiple times.
