[samigo-team] Assessment Organization - Navigation Options

[Ward, Lynn E.]

You can randomize the order in which the questions appear within each
part.  If a part uses "random draw from question pool", the question order
is randomized and there are two randomization options for multi-submission
assessments:

Type of randomization

-A student's questions are randomized each time an assessment is submitted
	
- A student's questions are randomized once for all submissions


If a part uses "questions authored one by one", the following options are
available.  The second option will show the questions in a random order.

Question ordering (not available for random draw):
-As listed on Assessment Questions page
	
-Random within Part

The only thing you can't randomize is the order of the parts.
