[Using Sakai] Oops, student identities concealed in test

  Hi Warwick,

       You can modify the back end DB by doing the following:

1. Find the published assessment id  (Note it's the 'ID' column, not the 
'ASSESSMENTID' column. That's for the original unpublished assessment), 
by running this query:
       select id from  sam_publishedassessment_t where title = 'your 
assessment title';

2. Use the id above and run this query below. This will list you all the 
settings that are turned off by this particular assessment type.
     select * from sam_publishedmetadata_t where assessmentid = :id   
and entry = 'false'

3.  You can change any settings by running individual UPDATE statement 
on each setting.  Or, if you want to turn on all the settings (which is 
essentially the default assessment type), you can run this following:
     update sam_publishedmetadata_t set entry = 'true' where 
assessmentid = :id  and entry = 'false'

    That should give you back your Grading options.   You might want to 
try it out on a test instance first.

     One last note, unless you understand exactly what each assessment 
type does (the goal of assessment types is to hide complexity of the 
settings) then I'd advise you to just use the 'Default Assessment Type' 
which has all options available.

thanks,
Lydia
