I asked this question last year, but I never had a response, so I'd like to poke at it again.

Problem:  In the CSP ebook, when I add coding exercises to my Assignments, the coding exercises that show up, after you click on the link, do not show the question and they do not show a link that says "See Question in ... " as is shown and demosntrated in the Creating Assignments video for instructors.

Last year:  we just had the kids note which problems they had to do, then they went to the table of contents of the book to find the exercises.  They did their work in the exercises section.

Is there a fix for this?

I have attached three screen shots to clear up what my kids see.  The only relevant attachment is "03 - Coding Exercises," but I included the view of the Assignments tab and a view of an assignment where they are just doing multiple choice from the reading.

Any ideas?

Thanks very much.

The questions in the eBook look like they need to be updated if you are choosing them from existing questions.  If you are writing your own questions then they need to follow the proper format.

.. activecode:: identifier

    If this is a homework problem instead of an example in the text
    then the assignment text should go here.  The assignment text ends with
    the line containing four tilde ~
    ~~~~
    print("hello world")
    ====
    print("Hidden code, such as unit tests come after the four = signs”)

This came about as a part of the assignment building interface we created last summer.  So it could very well be that some of the books still need updating.   I’m sure Mark would appreciate help from the community in reformatting.  😀
