Assessment parameter names are listed when viewing the assessment-level spreadsheet in the column label 'Item.' In the assessment-level spreadsheet, the parameters are available for calculation in three ways.

  1. Reference the cell containing the parameter value: A10

  2. Reference the parameter value by string name in brackets: [parameter_0_weight]

    In each of these two cases, the value of the parameter will replace the reference before the Perl code in the cell is executed.

  3. Use the &PARM() function, e.g. &PARM(parameter_0_weight), this will get run as part of the perl code evaluation.
