\label{Course_Parameter_Levels}

There are three different Parameter levels you can choose from when
setting Course Parameters: \textbf{Course level}, \textbf{Map level},
and \textbf{Resource level}.

\textbf{Course Level}: If you select Course level from the Parameter
pull down menu a table will append to the page showing the set
defaults for all resources in the course. The table has three columns:
\textbf{Parameter Name}, \textbf{Default Value}, and \textbf{Parameter
in Effect}.  The \textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the
different parameters that can be set for the resources.\textbf{Default
Value} is the parameter setting for the users.  \textbf{Parameter in
Effect} is the parameter setting for users.

\textbf{Map Level}: If you select \textbf{Map level} from the
Parameter pull down menu a table or tables will append to the page
showing the set defaults for all the resources in a map or folder in
the course. The map or folder display in the tables depends on which
map or folder you select from the enclosing map or folder pull down
menu. The table or tables have three columns: \textbf{Parameter Name},
\textbf{Default Value}, and \textbf{Parameter in Effect}. The
\textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the different parameters that
can be set for the resources. \textbf{Default Value} is the parameter
setting for the users. \textbf{Parameter in Effect} is the parameter
setting for the users.

\textbf{Resource Level}: If you selected \textbf{Resource level} from
the parameter level pull down menu, a table will append to the page
showing all the available parameters for each resource.  If you
selected a specific map or folder from the enclosing map or folder
pull down menu, then only the resources in the selected map or folder
will be display in the table. Here is a brief explanation for each
column within the table: \textbf{Assessment URL and Title} is the
column the resource location and name are listed. The \textbf{Type}
column reflects the type of resource. \textbf{Enclosing Map or Folder}
column gives the immediately enclosing map the resource is contained
in, which can be used for \textbf{Map Level} parameters. The
\textbf{Part} column shows what part the parameter is going to be set
for. The \textbf{Parameter Name} column lists all the different
parameters that can be set for the resources. The \textbf{Any User}
column is broken down in to different smaller groups: \textbf{Resource
Level}, \textbf{in Course}, and if applicable there is a column for
\textbf{in Section/Group}. Each one of these groups is broken down
further. The \textbf{Resource Level} is broken down into two columns:
\textbf{Default} and \textbf{for enclosing map and folder}. These two
columns reflect the parameter setting the author set when they created
the resources. The \textbf{in Course} column is broken down into three
columns: \textbf{General}, \textbf{Enclosing Map and Folder}, and
\textbf{for Resource}. These parameters are the setting you assign for
any user in the course. The \textbf{Section/Group} column reflects the
parameter settings you assign for a specific section/group of users
within the course. If you selected the \textbf{Resource Level} for a
selected user, The \textbf{User **** at Domain ****} column will also
be included in the table. This is broken down into three columns:
\textbf{General}, \textbf{Enclosing Map and Folder}, and \textbf{for
Resource}. These reflect the parameters setting you assign for the
selected user.  The next column is the \textbf{Parameter in
Effect}. This column reflects the parameter setting that is in
effect. The last column reflects the value for your username and does
incorporate complete cascading within a problem for your username.

The parameters priorities are shown lowest to highest, left to right
in the tables.
