1.2     ! albertel    1: \label{Parameter_Manager}
1.1       www         2: The Parameter Manages allows you to control settings for your course and 
                      3: your resources.
                      4: 
                      5: From this screen, you can set the course environment parameters\ref{Course_Environment}, such as who receives feedback messages\ref{Course_Feedback_Addresses}, 
                      6: how grading is done\ref{GradingOptions}, etc. You can also set which cataloging metadata users can associate with their portfolio files.
                      7: 
                      8: Many course coordinators will make extensive use of setting parameters for problems, in particular problems. There are a number of modes available. The easiest is probably the helper mode\ref{Parameter_Helper}, which guides you through the process. Once you have some experience with the system, you might use the overview\ref{Parameter_Overview} and table modes\ref{Table_Mode} more frequently. Several of these actions can be partially automated by setting Parameter Setting Default Actions.
                      9: 
                     10: For setting problem parameters, another convenient mode outside the Parameter Manager is navigating to the problem and using the PPRM (Problem Parameter) button\ref{Problem_Parameters).
                     11: 
                     12: Finally, you can list all parameters that have already been set in overview mode, and see a log of all changes.
