<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">I have a word search activity implemented in Lon-Capa worth 5 course points if completed with no hints. There are 12 words to find plus 3 "starter points" that you can spend on 3 different
hints for a total of 15 possible points. In the course parameters I've weighted the activity to 5 points. In the activity itself I've used assigned_score as follows:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">if($submission eq "12|3"){return (ASSIGNED_SCORE,15/15)}; #12|3 means all words found and no hints used, etc.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">if($submission eq "12|2"){return (ASSIGNED_SCORE,14/15)};</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">if($submission eq "12|1"){return (ASSIGNED_SCORE,13/15)};</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">if($submission eq "12|0"){return (ASSIGNED_SCORE,12/15)};</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">My expectation then, for example, is that if I complete the puzzle using two hints, in the course I should see 4.333 points awarded. However, what I'm seeing in the course for that
outcome is a score of 4.90476190476191 out of 5. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">The Word Search problem itself is a one-part problem with 7 customresponses; however, the score should be coming from only the customresponse with the assigned_score section shown
above. All of the other 6 customresponses are weighted at 0.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:13.0pt">So what am I missing? Thanks!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
