Case Study: UNED transforms online math learning and assessments with Wiris

UNED transforms online math learning with Wiris after 15 years of use

The Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED), Spain's leading distance-learning university, faced significant challenges in teaching and assessing math in its digital environment. Their faculty struggled to write mathematical formulas in forums, assignments, and quizzes on their custom OpenLMS platform, which created barriers for students and limited the creation of dynamic assessments. To overcome this, UNED turned to vendor Wiris for a solution, implementing the MathType editor and the WirisQuizzes assessment tool.

By implementing Wiris's solutions, UNED seamlessly integrated MathType and WirisQuizzes into its OpenLMS platform. This provided professors with an intuitive tool to effortlessly create math-rich content and introduced randomized expressions in quizzes to promote active learning over memorization. The results for Wiris's client included greater flexibility for teachers, improved student engagement, and seamless math communication across the university's digital environment.
