Assign a grade on selection of correct answer

[xcompass]

Students should be given grade on select of correct answer at stage 2.

Looking at this now; potentially we would implement two scenarios here:

1. For the case where there is no correct answer, make the grading based on participation.

2. For the case where there is a correct answer, give the instructor the ability to choose between two options: a) grading based on participation (full marks regardless of if the correct answer was chosen by the student or not), or b) grading based on choosing the correct answer (full marks if correct answer chosen, zero otherwise).

@xcompass @lenglund how does this sound?

LMS View

• in Step 3, add the grade achieved on the line starting with "Your final answer:"
• display the grade as points achieved/points possible, and as red if the instructor enabled grading by correct answer and the student selected an incorrect answer; green otherwise
• if the instructor has specified grading by participation, display points achieved as equal to points possible, and append "(problem graded based on participation)" to the grade displayed

Studio View

• in between "Correct Answer" and "Explanation", insert a "Graded" combo box with "By Participation" and "By Correct Answer" options
• on-select of "n/a" for the "Correct Answer" combo box, change "Graded" option to "By Participation" and disable the "Graded" combo box
• on-select of an option for the "Correct Answer" combo box after previously selected option was "n/a", enable the "Graded" combo box

From talking to users, it's apparent we need to be more clear about how the grade is assigned in either case (that in the case of participation it is all-or-nothing vs. partial and in the case of correct it is the second answer only).
