Using STACK for online assessment in STEM subjects: Q&A with Prof. Chris Sangwin

Presented by; Christopher J. Sangwin- Professor of Technology Enhanced Science Education, University of Edinburgh

STACK is a computer aided assessment system with a focus on automatically establishing objective properties of answers which have mathematical content. E.g. establishing that a polynomial, given by the student, is in factored form. Based on these objective properties partial credit, feedback and cohort statistics can be generated.

This workshop will provide an opportunity for existing users of STACK to refresh and extend their knowledge of STACK.

 

Please note Zoom sign in details will be sent prior to commencement of the course.
