Note: If you give a student extra time on an assessment accidentally, you can "undo" that by going back to the student and granting them 0 extra minutes. The second authorization undoes the previous one.

Mobius is a content delivery platform and an automated assessment tool built by DigitalEd Inc. Math has partnered with them to build Mobius and it is used in many of our courses, both grad and undergrad. Its primary advantage is the ability to create algorithmic questions which can give immediate feedback, leading to an almost unlimited number of questions. Mobius also permits more question types and advanced mathematical notation, unlike simple multiple choice only options.

Mobius assessments can be liked to the LEARN grade book, or assessments can be set to practice only with no grades recorded.

See the ITMS Mobius knowledgebase for much more information. Math also has an advanced training course of sorts for those who wish to become power users. Contact Peter Wood for more information.


Possible Alternatives: LEARN (for MC quizzes only)
