Report: CAA in Mathematics Workshop

Over 40 people from 30 institutions attended this workshop for academics who would like computer support in carrying out assessment. Five contributions from presenters who are actively using computer-aided assessment in undergraduate mathematics courses addressed questions such as:

• Can test editors be designed to construct questions suitable for diagnostic continuous and grading assessment?
• Which question types best test which mathematical skills?
• How can mathematical assessment packages contribute to deep understanding?

These questions will continue to be addressed through discussion on the email discussion list maths-caa.
