Question in How-tos
The number entry part in this question has an alternative answer which is marked correct if the student's number satisfies an equation specified in the custom marking algorithm.

Question in How-tos
A custom marking algorithm picks out the names of the constants of integration that the student has used in their answer, and tries mapping them to every permutation of the constants used in the expected answer. The version that agrees the most with the expected answer is used for testing equivalence.
If the student uses fewer constants of integration, it still works (but they must be wrong), and if they use too many, it's still marked correct if the other variables have no impact on the result. For example, adding $+0t$ to an expression which otherwise doesn't use $t$ would have no impact.

Question in Engineering Statics
Two forces act on a bell crank. This problem has two unknown magnitudes and an unknown direction which makes it tricky to solve by the equilibrium equation method.
The solution is much simpler if three force body principle is used.

Exam (8 questions) in Demos
Some questions demonstrating how explore mode can be used.
-
Question in How-tos
Should not be used: this relies on a custom JavaScript which is not guaranteed to continue working.
Wrap the student's answer in
set()
so it's marked as a set. -
Question in Demos
Shows how the "give a number which satisfies an equation" part type can be used to makr the student's number correct if it satisfies an equation of the form $f(x) = 0$.

Question in Swansea Electronic and Electrical Engineering
A simple test of definitions, properties and transform tables. Useful for retrieval practice.
-
Question in Engineering Statics
Two dimensional particle equilibrium problem. Advice shows how to use how to use slope triangles to find sines and cosines, rather than finding the angle and using that.
-
Question in Foundation Maths
This uses an embedded Geogebra graph of a sine curve $y=a\sin (bx+c)+d$ with random coefficients set by NUMBAS.
-
Question in Engineering Statics
Student calculates $\bar{y}$ for a triangle. Must use similar triangles get element $dA$.
-
Question in Engineering Statics
Student is given two points defined symbolically, and must find the equation of the line they define, then use integration to find an equation for the area under the line, bounded by the x-axis and vertical lines through the two points.
-
Question in MESH
Use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the length of a side on a right-angled triangle.
-
Question in Demos
In the first part, the student must write an R function to compute the first $n$ terms of the series $\frac{1}{k!}$.
In the second part, they must use that function to calculate an approximation to $e$ using a given number of terms of the series.
-
Question in Demos
The student must write code to compute the standard deviation of an unknown list of measurements.
The suggested answer uses numpy.std.
-
Question in Demos
In four parts, the student builds up the definition of a class representing a rectangle. First they write the constructor, then add methods to compute area and perimeter.
In the final part, they must use the methods to write a function which determines if a rectangle's area is larger than its perimeter.

Exam (20 questions) in Odds and Ends
Twenty questions which can be used by Initial Teacher Education students preparing for the Australian LANTITE numeracy test. The questions are grouped in content strands and each question is randomised. Questions are either multiple choice, true/false or type the answer in a box. The questions are chosen from a menu and there is no time limit. They are different to the questions in Timed Practice Quiz v2.
