Hi Andrew,

There are a few possibilities, depending on what you are trying to do. As you mentioned writing this:

$f='x^2-1';

using either single or double quotes, will do it in that particular variable.

On the other hand you did mention $ANSWER - $RESPONSE which suggests you are using a Maple-graded response area. In that case, relying on the Maple computation engine for the algorithm code may also be a solution.

$f=maple("x^2-1");

Hi Andrew,

Unfortunately the plotmaple command is a static image, but if you setup a plot component in Maple (using the same plotting code), and then save that worksheet, then you can import the worksheet as an interactive Math App into Möbius (apologies, this part of our new help system is under construction, but it links to our old help page on Math Apps for now).

Then the student will be able to interact with the worksheet and move the plot.

More complex apps can be constructed and graded - see the Math Apps in Maple or our Math App Authoring Guidelines.

Hi Nico,

Firstly, thanks for the effort in designing the nice questions! I would like to ask about +Quaterions_Rotation question, because of normalizing $k to get $u, the answer that the students need to enter is a decimal approximation. Are you looking to make that exact, or will you add tolerance so the student just enters correct to a number of decimal places?

I think the exact answers make more sense, so I would suggest putting certain variables in quotation marks or evaluating them using maple calls:

$length='sqrt($kx^2+$ky^2+$kz^2)';
....
$angle='$angledeg*Pi/180';

As a starting point, I would recommend substitution of the students response into the DE. Obviously that would confirm that the student provided a solution, but won't check for the existence of the arbitrary integration constant. To do that the indets($RESPONSE, name) command will check for C (assuming that your students always use C to denote the integration constant).

is(diff($RESPONSE, x)+$RESPONSE+$RESPONSE*(x^n)=0) and evalb(indets($RESPONSE, name) = {C, n, x})

The Display command uses the Typesetting package native to Maple Document mode. However since Möbius is a web app, everything needs to be converted into MathML (or LaTeX or similar) to be supported by the browsers.

The closest I can think of (with this method) is the following: $a=maple("use InertForm:-NoSimpl in a:=2(3*x) end use; printf(InertForm:-ToMathML(a));");

But I don't know if that will generalize well to the rest of your problem.

Hi @danr 

These settings will do what you want - Proctored Exam+Proctor Sign-in to Start restricts users from accessing the test unless they are authorized. If a Password is set, then users who know the Password can then authorize themselves and access the test.

Do your tutors have the Student role or the Instructor Role? If they have the Instructor role they should not need you to set the password, as they can Authorize themselves.

There may be more options, depending on your product version and how you integrate with Mobius. For more specific advice I would suggest contacting support@digitaled.com 

Maybe someone else here knows the answer, but if your question is about Maple worksheets then I'd also suggest contacting the Maplesoft support team directly at https://www.maplesoft.com/supp...

Or alternatively, the Maple-specific community MaplePrimes may know the answer. They are located at https://www.mapleprimes.com/

The 40px spacing applies to the iframe for the entire HTML question. Whilst your trick worked for me, I'd suggest moving all of your Question Text to inside the Question HTML: part of the response area:

I think Maple is attempting to simplify the expression. Changing $VP1="(sqrt(6)/6)*(L^3*S/E)^(1/4)"; should help, but still sqrt(3)/6 is shown as 1/6*sqrt(3)

You cannot use the Equation Editor in this case?

I have been able to search for content in the Cloud in Maple T.A. 2017 - e.g. searching for Distribution gives any folder with 'Distribution' in the title, as well as questions containing 'Distribution' in either the title or the question text. Can also use * to search the start of words e.g. searching Geom* will give you results for Geometry and Geometric. However I'm afraid I don't see the Fourier series folders you are referring to (either in the list or by searching).

EDIT: Also if you are looking for a specific topic, try the "Subjects" list under Maple Cloud, instead of "All Content Types".
