Hi all,
The INNODEMS team in Kenya is in the process of authoring questions on the topics listed below. We kindly ask anyone who has existing materials related to these areas to share them with us via mary.sayuni@innodems.org

STACK and #MecLib
The MecLib library allows the creation of #Moodle #STACK #maths related questions with Graphics without having to write any #Javascript. It uses the JSXGraph library that comes bundled with #STACKmaths and the output can be customised purely within the casmaxima of the questionvariables field.

Delighted to meet up with the creator of the STACK question type Professor Chris Sangwyn at the second day of the International Meeting of the STACK community at Durham university.
I am particularly excited by the addition of a STACK question library that is accessible from within the question editing interface. This allows a teacher to bring in a basic template question as a new question and then tweak it to suit their own purposes.
STACK Webinar video
The video from my #Moodle Academy webinar on #maths education using the #STACK question type. I do get quite excited during the presentation. I can make all sample questions available on request. I amused myself again when I heard me mention what I would do if I were/was independently wealthy.

Yesterdays STACK Maths seminar
The STACK webinar for the #Moodle Academy yesterday went well. One of the things that came from it was an interest in the freely available banks of questions that ship with it in Moodle mbz backup files. These are from the HELM project (Helping Engineers Learn Maths?) and cover a very wide range of concepts you can get instant student access to a course with the contents from here.
I am doing a webinar tomorrow on "Maths Education with the #Moodle STACK Question Type"

I had made a short video to promote it but my colleague at @catalysteu took the mp4 and tightened it up rather nicely

I have been using the #Moodle #STACK #maths related question intensely over the last few months. I had idly thought that it would be good to have an automated way of giving inputs and prts “sensible names”, i.e. instead of ans1, ans2 etc I could rename the input fields with things like width, area and have all references updated appropriately.
It turns out that the feature already exists under the menu Tidy inputs and PRT’s, wonderful!

The STACK question type is the most powerful and flexible maths related question available for any platform. With that power comes some complexity and this webinar I will address how it can be used by non experts. We will be showing ways of simplifying the question editing process and sharing resources.
The #Moodle #STACK #maths question type comes bundled with a copy of the jsxGraph #Javascript library. This allows the creation of graphical questions including where the student can respond by dragging points.
