  • In this demo question, you can see either 2 or 3 gaps depending on the variable \(m\), and the marking algorithm doesn't penalise for the empty third gap in cases when it is not shown.

    Reason to use it: for vectors or matrices containing only numbers, one can easily use matrix entry to account for a random size of an answer. But this does not work for mathematical expressions. There we have to give each entry of the vector as a separate gap, which then becomes a problem when the size varies. This solves that problem. For this reason I've included two parts: one very simple one that just shows the phenomenon of variable number of gaps, and one which is more like why I  needed it.

    Note that to resolve the fact that when \(m=2\), the point for the third gap cannot be earned, I have made it so that the student only gets 0 or all points, when all shown gaps are correctly filled in.

    Note the use of Ax[m-1] in the third gap "correct answer" of part b): if you use Ax[2], then it will throw an error when m=2, as then Ax won't have the correct size. So even though the marking algorithm will ignore it, the question would still not work.

    Bonus demo if you look in the variables: A way to automatically generate the correct latex code for \(\var{latexAx}\), since it's a variable size. I would usually  need that in the "Advice", i.e. solutions, rather than the question text.

  • Demo of automatically generating latex strings to out put vectors/matrices of variable size and that are calculated by some formula.

  • Question in Linear Algebra 1st year by Picture of Julia Goedecke Julia Goedecke and 2 others

    Solving a system of three linear equations in 3 unknowns using Gaussian Elimination (or Gauss-Jordan algorithm) in 5 stages. Solutions are all integers. Set up so that sometimes it has infinitely many solutions (one free variable), sometimes unique solution. Scaffolded so meant for formative. The variable d determines the cases (d=1: unique solution, d-0: infinitely many solutions). The other variables are set up so that no entries become zero for some randomisations but not others.

  • Simple scalar multiplication of a general vector with the important scalars 0, 1, -1. Just the variable name is randomised.

  • Finding a matrix from a formula for each entry, which involves the row and column numbers of that entry. Not randomized because it's the same as in our workbook. But the variables are made in a way that it should be easy to randomise the size of the matrix, and the to change the formula for the input in not too many places.

  • First compute matrix times vector for specific vectors. Then determine domain and codomain and general formula for the matrix transformation defined by the matrix.

    Randomising the number of rows in the matrix, m, makes the marking algorithm for part c) slightly complicated: it checks whether it should include the third gap or not depending on the variable m. For the correct distribution of marks, it is then necessary to do "you only get the marks if all gaps are correct". Otherwise the student would only get 2/3 marks when m=2, so the third gap doesn't appear.

  • Question in Linear Algebra 1st year by Picture of Julia Goedecke Julia Goedecke and 1 other

    This allows the student to input a linear system in augmented matrix form (max rows 5, but any number of variables). Then the student can decide to swap some rows, or multiply some rows, or add multiples of one row to other rows. The student only has to input what operation should be performed, and this is automatically applied to the system. This question has no marks and no feedback as it's just meant as a "calculator".

  • Exam (8 questions) in Demos by Picture of Christian Lawson-Perfect Christian Lawson-Perfect

    A demonstration of the exam-level variable override feature. The student is shown the same question several times, but each instance is set up to suggest a different error in the process of computing the median of a sample. The first instance is very easy, and the last is pretty hard.

  • A question designed to demonstrate the exam-level variable overrides feature. The student must work out the median of a given sample. The exam can override size of the sample, the range of numbers to pick, and whether the sample should be shown to the student in increasing order.

  • Because JavaScript numbers lose precision as they get bigger, you get some unexpected results.

    See the variable "two" - the difference should be 2, but because the JavaScript representation of each of the two numbers is the same, it thinks the difference is 0.

    Using the decimal data type, there's no loss of precision, so the correct value is produced.

  • This shows how to use variable name annotations inside \simplify to display a 3D vector in terms of the standard unit vectors $\boldsymbol{i}$, $\boldsymbol{j}$, $\boldsymbol{k}$

  • Demonstrates how to create variables containing LaTeX commands, and how to use them in the question text.

  • A method of randomly choosing variable names - use the expression() JME function to create a variable name from a randomly chosen string.

    (This question also uses a custom marking script to check that the student has simplified the expression)

  • Use attributes of the form eval-<name> to dynamically set an attribute on an element based on question variables.
