+<p>If you enable this option, then the parts making up the individual
+   questions will be randomly shuffled each time a student 
+   starts an attempt at this quiz, provided the option is also
+   enabled in the question settings.</p>

+<p>This only applies to questions that have multiple parts, such as 
+   Multiple Choice or Matching Questions. For multiple choice questions
+   the order of the answers is shuffled only when this option is set to
+   &quot;Yes&quot;. For matching type questions the answers are always shuffled,
+   this setting controls whether in addition the order of the
+   question-answer pairs is shuffled.</p>
+
+<p>This option is not related to the use of Random Questions.</p>
