[LON-CAPA-users] Multiple questions on one page

[Seema Ali]

Thanks Raymond,

I'll have to look into it more closely.  I've never used that before.

There is a feature in "Edit Course" under "Special Documents" called "New Composite Page" which I believe is the in-course way of assembling a .page file from published problems.  I have not attempted to use that particular feature myself, though.

My previous message was typed in haste.
When I referred to a ".sequence file" (in point 3 or my message) I was actually intending to say a ".page file", which is a sequence which renders as a single webpage.  
If you have not already discovered this you can create a .page starting in your author construction space from the "Create a new directory or LON-CAPA document" menu option: "Select action" = "New assembled page".

Briefly, 3 main options (as I see it):

1) multi-part problems (to which you already refer)

2)You could choose to have multiple *responses* within a non-parted problem (or within a single part), but that would mean those responses would all have to be submitted at once and therefore be all "correct" on a single submission.

3) The other option is to author, and publish, a sequence (.sequence xml file which assembles a folder containing multiple problems).
There are various differences/issues/features associated with the use of a (multi-problem) sequence as opposed to a (multi-part) problem.

I personally prefer to use multi-part problems, wherever possible.

Is it possible, other than using parts, to have more than 1 question on a page for an assessment? 



Thanks.
