[LON-CAPA-users] Hints for first LON-CAPA question

Take a look through the documentation for concept groups.

They can be used in radiobutton response, optionresponse, ranking,
and matching questions (and maybe a few more types).

The student will effectively get one selection from each concept group.

1 would be in a concept group by itself, 2a and 2b would be together, and they
would get either 2a or 2b, and so on.

Look at the templates for an optionresponse with conceptgroups for an example.

Hope this helps! I'm sure Gerd, Ray and Peter will be along shortly with more
details.

Later,
Mark
