Re: Educational Publishing Use Case

Davis

thanks for the additional clarification

this supports requirements for supporting permissions that include groups, possibly other requirements. We might want to list the implications.

While courses might be kept relatively separate, items within them, let's say a particular question for a problem set, might be used in multiple courses. One scenario that might come into play here would be that an instructor wanted to make an annotation that applied to the question in all of the courses/instances. The annotation would of course need to target the question across the courses, which as noted would be difficult to manage track, but as far as an annotation targeting something that would apply in multiple courses, questions is certainly one item. It would hypothetically be easier for the instructor to make the one annotation that applied to each use/location of the question than to make individual annotations for each.
