Description
We will demonstrate how we use the MathMatize website both for in-class polls and post-class quizzes in several first- and second-year large physics classes. MathMatize is a relatively new system which supports fill-in-the-blank style questions where students input equations, and the system is very good at recognizing equivalent answers. We find that this system works much better than multiple choice questions, especially for the second-year courses where, for example, we can get students to set up integrals during class and get immediate feedback on any mistakes.
