Given x3-x as a correct answer
there are unlimited possibilities
to answer correctly
x3-x , x(x2-1), x(x-1)(x+1),….
WIRIS engine check them for
you!
Evaluation of Open Answer
Given one correct answer to
a mathematical question
Student’s correct answer
may be infinite
WIRIS math engine checks
the answer correctness
Evaluation of Open Answers
http://www.wiris.com/quizzes/gui/editAnswer.html
Given x(x-1)(x+1) as a correct answer
we may request to have a FACTORIZED answer
x(x-1)(x+1)=x(x2-1)=x3-x
But ONLY x(x-1)(x+1) is accepted
WIRIS engine checks it for you!
Advanced features

to mathematical properties
of the answer
Simplified
Factored
…
Evaluation of Open Answers
