\label{Option_Response_Problem_Creation}

To create an Option Response problem, create a new resource as described
in section \ref{Creating New Content Pages}. This is a {}``problem'' resource
so the URL must end in {}``.problem''. You should see a screen as in
figure ``Option Response Editor''.

\begin{enumerate}
\item In the drop-down option box as seen in figure \ref{Creating a new problem resource},
select \textbf{Option Response Problem with} \textbf{\emph{N}} \textbf{Concept
Groups}, where \textbf{\emph{N}} is the number of Concept Groups you wish
the problem to have, and click the \textbf{New Problem} button.
\item Click the \textbf{Edit} button above the sample problem to enter edit mode.%

 You should see the Option Response page open up.
\item Replace the text in the \textbf{Text Block} with text that explains the conditions
for your problem.
\item Locate the \textbf{Max Number of Shown Foils} element and type a number from
1 to 8 to display that number of questions. You cannot display more than
one foil from each concept group, so this option will only reduce the number
of foils displayed, if it is less than the number of concept groups in your
Option Response problem.
\item Now you must define the options the students can select. For each option
you wish to add to the Option Response question, type the option into the
\textbf{Add new Option} box in the \textbf{Select Options} section, then
hit the \textbf{Save Changes} button. If you do not hit the \textbf{Save
Changes} button, your option will not be selectable below. (You can delete
unwanted options in the last step.)
\item Now, you need to define the question foils. Look for the foil with the name
{}``One''. Type the question into the text box and select the correct
option for that question from the \textbf{Correct Option} drop-down menu.
Click \textbf{Submit Changes} to save this question foil. Repeat this step
for all remaining foils.
\item Locate the foils that are not being used. In their \textbf{Delete} menus,
set the value to \textbf{Yes}. Once you've set the Delete menu value correctly
for all the foils, click the \textbf{Save Changes} button.
\item In the Hint area, provide a helpful hint for users who get the problem incorrect,
and click the \textbf{Save Changes} button.
\item Make sure all the options you want to delete are not used for any of your
foils. If a deleted option is used in a foil, it will appear in a text box in the
\textbf{Correct Option} area for that foil. To make the drop-down box reappear,
type an option already defined in the \textbf{Select Options} field, and
hit \textbf{Submit Changes}. A drop-down box will reappear.
To delete the irrelevant options from the Option Response question, select
that option from the \textbf{Delete an Option} drop down, and hit the \textbf{Save
Changes} button. Do this for each option you wish to remove.
