Interactive Math Text with On-line Test for E-Learning
Abstract: In a math class for students who major natural sciences, like physics, chemistry and so on, it is important to lead students to use mathematics in several problems of sciences. In order to realize that kind of education, it is necessary to teach a mathematical concept and to get students to solve problems. We developed some teaching materials by using mathematical software Maple. It is a first feature of the teaching material that text document and simulation software comes together. A second feature of them is that they offer some problems that are randomly generated at each trial. Furthermore they are accessible via web browser over the Internet with the aid of MapleNet; a server software for mathematical engine of Maple.
