welcome to MATLAB greater MATLAB greater
lets you create auto-graded MATLAB
coding problems for learners to solve
with MATLAB greater you can add these
problems to courses which you can then
host in either MATLAB greater itself or
an integrated learning management system
like blackboard or Moodle at the core of
MATLAB greater are MATLAB coding
problems that you create here's a sample
problem let's take a quick look at each
section of the form these illustrate the
key features of MATLAB coding problems
at the top you provide a title and
description the description can include
formatted text latech equations links
and images next you can provide data
encode files that can be used by the
learner you can also indicate whether
the problem is to be solved using a
MATLAB script or function next you enter
the reference solution this is your
solution to the problem you can also
enter a learner template this is starter
code that you can provide to the learner
you can lock lines that you don't want
the learner to edit the assessment area
is where you indicate how the learners
solution will be graded this example has
two tests a lab grader makes it easy to
create assessment tests the tests shown
here compares a learner solution for the
variable num cold days to the reference
solution all you need to do is name the
variable to check the test automatically
provides defaults for things like
tolerance levels and feedback in this
case the instructor has created some
rich feedback using the same rich text
editor to provide instantaneous feedback
to the student if their assessment fails
and here's what learners see learners
enter their solution click Submit and
get immediate feedback in this case both
assessments have passed and are showing
green checkmarks showing the learner
that they have solved the problem
correctly the learners output is also
shown below the assessment when you add
a new problem you're given a choice of
how to start you can start from scratch
with a blank problem or you can explore
one of our example problems
or you can reuse a problem you've
already created let me show you how to
get an example problem
MATLAB grader gives you several ways to
organize problems one way is to create a
course hosted in MATLAB grader itself a
MATLAB grader course consists of
assignments each with a set of problems
for learners to solve once you've set up
the course you invite learners you can
also invite other instructors to help
you as the instructor you can track your
class's progress through your course you
learner solutions and generate reports
of learner activity MATLAB grader also
lets you create a repository of problems
outside of a course which you can
organize and later use in courses MATLAB
grader organizes a repository into
collections which are then subdivided
into groups of problems you decide on
the organization that best suits your
needs you can grant access to other
instructors so they can collaborate with
you in creating the collection and can
use the problems in their own courses
and finally if you have a MATLAB greater
license you can integrate with your
learning management system and bring
auto grading into your LMS based course
that's MATLAB grader in a nutshell
MATLAB grader offers several types of
assistance to help you along the way
documentation and support online
training inline help and example
problems that illustrate best practices
for creating effective course problems
enjoy using MATLAB grader
