ANGEL Community Hub

I have a course that is based on a Master Course. The import was done from the dev. space and everything seems ok except when I click on a discussion forum I get an error message.
"An error has occurred on the server. "

This happens on every discussion forum in the course. It was not a problem during the fall semester.

Any advice on what to do next? I was thinking maybe delete them and copy from the Fall section...

Does anyone have any suggestions for handling peer evaluations in Angel?

I got a question from a faculty member that is having trouble with the display/appearance of items in ANGEL. An example is his calendar entries for a course - when he hovers over an event, the background color of the pop-up box and/or the font of the text blend into the page background. I am wondering if it is a Firefox 3 issue? - that is his browser on a PC (Win XP, I think). Does ANGEL support this version?

I have a faculty member that I'm working with who would like to set up quizzes in ANGEL like this:

1) There are a total of 20 multiple choice questions.
2) There is a section heading inserted that selects 10 questions out of 20.
3) Each question is displayed one at a time.
4) The student has 3 attempts to take the quiz- the highest score is recorded.
5) The faculty member wants the same questions and to have them in the same order for all 3 attempts.

When I created the section heading I selected "never scramble" but when I tested the quiz as a student taking it 3 times... each time I ended up getting at least 1 or 2 questions that weren't in the other attempts and the questions were never in the same order each time.
Any suggestions for how to fix this but still have the 20 question bank so that all students aren't receiving the same quiz?

Dow anyone know how well the calculated quiz question wizard works within ANGEL? What has been the faculty experience with this tool? I'm asking so that I know if this is something I should promote/advertise within the college of Engineering.
