                      WirisQuizzes Extended Course

                      Reading time: 1min

                      The WirisQuizzes Extended Course is aimed at those who wish to approach this powerful tool to create and evaluate mathematical content questions. It goes from the very beginning to an advanced user level for those who haven't used it before.

                      Besides the content presented in the Regular training (you will find the same lessons if you enrol the Extended), this course covers the following competencies. You will:

                      • Search and locate the information in the CalcMe documentation.
                      • Create advanced algorithms with CalcMe (create and represent functions, comprehension lists...).Create questions with validation parameters of the student's response.
                      • Use programming tools when generating algorithms with CalcMe.
                      • Use the student's response using the response parameter.
                      • Create questions that require the use of qualification functions for 
                      • Understand the usefulness of random seed in a questionnaire.

                      Note

                      By enrolling in the Extended training instead of the Regular one, you will have access to a repository with 60 questions of different mathematical fields so you can inspire yourself or use them as we have written them in your classroom.

                      CalcMe commands

                      In this course, you'll see a detailed analysis of some of the more essential algorithms available in CalcMe (create & represent functions and comprehension lists, to name two).

                      Besides, you will learn how to use programming tools when generating algorithms with CalcMe To create lists, sets, variables, functions, and much more, it's essential to know the programming options of CalcMe.

                      Validation options in WirisQuizzes

                      Create questions with validation parameters of the student's response. When you create a question, apart from its phrasing and the algorithm, it is essential to consider what answers from the student you want to grade as correct, giving special attention to its value and format. You can control these fields with the validation settings.

                      Advanced functionalities in questions with WirisQuizzes

                      It's possible to use the student's answer in different sections of WirisQuizzes. For example, you can maximize learning by giving specific feedback to the student depending on their answer to a question. You can also link different questions on a quiz using the random seed.

                      Besides, when editing a question, WirisQuizzes offers a wide range of options to compare the student's answer with the correct answer. However, specific rules are sometimes necessary to determine if an answer is correct. It's the grading functions that make it possible to apply these rules. When you write the question, you define a formula that analyzes the student's answer and decides whether or not it is correct. By doing so, you open up more specific evaluations than those available in the WirisQuizzes Validation options section.
