Overview
Our pilot aims to produce basic calculus online course materials with interactive components as follows:
- Course materials with animated visualizations, which allow the student to experiment e.g. with different parameters, and learn how they affect the given system
- Automatically assessed exercises that adapt to the answers given by the student
- In particular, exercises, in which a wrong answer automatically leads to more detailed questions, requiring the student to review the theory more carefully
