Abstract
This is a brief introduction to the capabilities of Maple TA with a particular emphasis on the mathematical processing facility that it offers. In this session we will take a quick trip through:
- What Maple TA tests look like
- What Maple TA questions look like and a brief overview of the types
- Maths processing and what Maple can (and can't) do
- How to set up questions in Maple TA
- How to set up questions using Latex
This session is aimed at colleagues who are looking for a more sophisticated testing environment than those currently available at the university.
