Elearning:CTLT Service Catalogue/Math & Science Online Homework Tools

From UBC Wiki

WeBWorK is a free open source Perl-based system for delivering individualized homework problems over the web. By providing students with immediate feedback as to the correctness of their answers, students are encouraged to make multiple attempts until they succeed. By individualizing problems, cheating is discouraged. By providing instructors with real-time statistics, lesson plans can be customized to better serve students. An instance of WeBWorK has been used by the Mathematics Department at UBC in Pilot phase from Fall 2009. Up to Fall 2012, it is widely used in Mathematics Department and also adopted by some other department as well.
