Question in NCL MSP3801
Find the eigenfunctions of an irregular Sturm–Liouville problem and hence solve an inhomogeneous boundary value problem by writing the solution as an eigenfunction expansion.

Question in Debugging other people's stuff
The student has to write the general solution of a 2nd order PDE. They can choose the names of their arbitrary functions of $x$ and $y$.
The marking algorithm finds the names of the functions of $x$ and $y$ in the student's answer, and replaces them with $\sin(x)$ and $\cos(y)$ (these could be changed) so that the expression can be evaluated.

Characteristic poly, eigenvalues and eigenvectors 3x3, digonailsability (non-randomised) Ready to useQuestion in Ugur's workspace
Example of an explore mode question. Student is given a 3x3 matrix and is asked to find the characteristic polynomial and eigenvalues, and then eigenvectors for each eigenvalue. The part asking for eigenvectors can be repeated as often as the student wants, to be used for different eigenvalues.
Assessed: calculating characteristic polynomial and eigenvectors.
Feature: any correct eigenvalue will be recognised by the marking algorithm, even multiples of the obvious one(s) (which can be read off from the reduced row echelon form)
Randomisation: Not randomised, just using particular matrices. I am still working on how to randomise this for 3x3; a randomised 2x2 version exists. I have several different versions for 3x3 (not all published yet), so I could make a random choice between these in a test.
The implementation uses linear algebra functions such as "find reduced echelon form" or "find kernel of a reduced echelon form", from the extension "linalg2".

Question in SIT316
This question uses a Geogebra applet to solve a linear program with two variables using the graphical method. It contains three steps:
- Construct the feasible area (polygon) by adding the constraints one by one. The students can see what happens when the constraints are added.
- Add the objective function, and the level set of the objective value is shown, as well as its (normalised) gradient.
- Compute the optimal solution by moving the level set of the objective around.

Question in Christian's workspace
This is a copy of a question from the Numbas demos project, with references to the editor removed.
The student is shown a plot of a mystery function. They can enter values of $x$ check, within the bounds of the plot.
They're asked to give the formula for the function, and then asked for its value at a very large value of $x$.
A plot of the student's function updates automatically as they type. Adaptive marking is used for the final part to award credit if the student gives the right value for their incorrect function.

Question in Deactivated user's workspace
Compute a table of values for a quadratic function. A JSXgraph (the graph paper) plot shows the curve going through the entered values. The student input is now disconnected from the graph so that they slide the points usually after they input the values and the answer fields are not updated.
