Case Study: Minot State University streamlines online testing with Maplesoft Maple T.A.

Minot State University saves 5–6 days on grading with Maplesoft

Minot State University needed a more efficient way to deliver and grade assessments for an online mathematics course, facing the challenge of time delays and logistical work associated with traditional paper-based testing. Professor Kevin Vang turned to Maplesoft and its Maple T.A. automated testing and assessment system to address this.

The solution implemented by Maplesoft allowed students to take tests anytime and anywhere, with the system providing instant grading, which eliminated a multi-day mail delay and saved the professor significant grading effort. The reusable question banks and the key feature of free-response math questions delivered the specific capabilities the university required. Maplesoft's product resulted in a much easier online teaching process and high satisfaction from both the instructor and the students.
