    1: \label{Course_Parameter_Levels}
    2: 
    3: There are three different Parameter levels you can choose from when
    4: setting Course Parameters: \textbf{Course level}, \textbf{Map level},
    5: and \textbf{Resource level}.
    6: 
    7: \textbf{Course Level}: If you select Course level from the Parameter
    8: pull down menu a table will append to the page showing the set
    9: defaults for all resources in the course. The table has three columns:
   10: \textbf{Parameter Name}, \textbf{Default Value}, and \textbf{Parameter
   11: in Effect}.  The \textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the
   12: different parameters that can be set for the resources.\textbf{Default
   13: Value} is the parameter setting for the users.  \textbf{Parameter in
   14: Effect} is the parameter setting for users.
   15: 
   16: \textbf{Map Level}: If you select \textbf{Map level} from the
   17: Parameter pull down menu a table or tables will append to the page
   18: showing the set defaults for all the resources in a map or folder in
   19: the course. The map or folder displayd in the tables depends on which
   20: map or folder you select from the enclosing map or folder pull down
   21: menu. The table or tables have three columns: \textbf{Parameter Name},
   22: \textbf{Default Value}, and \textbf{Parameter in Effect}. The
   23: \textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the different parameters that
   24: can be set for the resources. \textbf{Default Value} is the parameter
   25: setting for the users. \textbf{Parameter in Effect} is the parameter
   26: setting for the users.
   27: 
   28: \textbf{Resource Level}: If you selected \textbf{Resource level} from
   29: the parameter level pull down menu, a table will append to the page
   30: showing all the available parameters for each resource.  If you
   31: selected a specific map or folder from the enclosing map or folder
   32: pull down menu, then only the resources in the selected map or folder
   33: will be display in the table. Here is a brief explanation for each
   34: column within the table: \textbf{Assessment URL and Title} is the
   35: column the resource location and name are listed. The \textbf{Type}
   36: column reflects the type of resource. \textbf{Enclosing Map or Folder}
   37: column gives the immediately enclosing map the resource is contained
   38: in, which can be used for \textbf{Map Level} parameters. The
   39: \textbf{Part} column shows what part the parameter is going to be set
   40: for. The \textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the different
   41: parameters that can be set for the resources. The \textbf{Any User}
   42: column is broken down in to different smaller groups: \textbf{Resource
   43: Level}, \textbf{in Course}, and if applicable there is a column for
   44: \textbf{in Section/Group}. Each one of these groups is broken down
   45: further. The \textbf{Resource Level} is broken down into two columns:
   46: \textbf{Default} and \textbf{for enclosing map and folder}. These two
   47: columns reflect the parameter setting the author set when they created
   48: the resources. The \textbf{in Course} column is broken down into three
   49: columns: \textbf{General}, \textbf{Enclosing Map and Folder}, and
   50: \textbf{for Resource}. These parameters are the setting you assign for
   51: any user in the course. The \textbf{Section/Group} column reflects the
   52: parameter settings you assign for a specific section/group of users
   53: within the course. If you selected the \textbf{Resource Level} for a
   54: selected user, The \textbf{User **** at Domain ****} column will also
   55: be included in the table. This is broken down into three columns:
   56: \textbf{General}, \textbf{Enclosing Map and Folder}, and \textbf{for
   57: Resource}. These reflect the parameters setting you assign for the
   58: selected user.  The next column is the \textbf{Parameter in
   59: Effect}. This column reflects the parameter setting that is in
   60: effect. The last column reflects the value for your user name and does
   61: incorporate complete cascading within a problem for your user name.
   62: 
   63: The parameters priorities are shown lowest to highest, left to right
   64: in the tables.
