This white paper examines how Maple T.A., the online testing and assessment system from Maplesoft, enables STEM educators to fully leverage automated assessment in meaningful ways.
Online testing and assessment has opened up great opportunities for the modern educator. Good automated assessment tools can help consolidate student understanding, support self-directed learning, give instructors more time to focus on other teaching tasks, make it easier to manage growing class sizes, and much more.
While these systems are of tremendous use in some subjects, initially their benefits were not readily available in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses, because the assessment systems could not meet the specialised needs of these subject areas. However, Maple T.A. can provide the benefits of automated assessment to STEM instructors and students.
