In this video I am going to show you a math add on for google forms you can use this add
on to write mathematical expressions in google forms, in google classroom in quizzes because
when you create a google classroom quiz you essentially are creating a google form and
this add on is called hypatia and this also works for google slides you can write math
expressions on your presentations and also in google docs so this is a versatile add
on and it does a fantastic job and all of you guys will love this because there are
two types of approaches mostly used for writing maths one are latex-based methods in which
you should know how latex equations work and the other is word-style equation writing and
when I say word-style equation writing it means if you have seen Microsoft word, you
might have noticed that it is very easy to use because if you are writing a fraction,
you will see two boxes on top of each other and there is a line in between so you can
intuitively understand that you have to put the numerator value in the top box and the
denominator value in the bottom box similarly for square root or cube root you will see
a radical sign and then you have to put a number inside there will be a box, there will
be a box outside so very intuitive and because most of you would prefer to work in word-style
equation writing so i have selected hypatia because this gives you the ability to write
in a word style manner in your google documents now there are three types of applications
which can be used for writing maths you can write mathematics using a website and the
most popular website is codecogs.com and i have made a separate video for that website
I will put a link at the end of this video you can watch that video then you can use
chrome extensions and you can also use add ons and the difference between chrome extension
and add on is that when you install an extension it works for all of the web pages on your
browser because it is browser-based application but when you use add an add on, it might work
only for any specific google product for example one add on could be the one which only works
with google docs or only with google slides some work with two of the google applications,
some work with more than 2 hypatia works with google forms google slides and google docs
therefore you can use this in any of these applications and i will show you how you can
check that which add on works for which application now before i show you how you can use this
math add on for google forms I would like to say two things the first is that if you
have not subscribed to my channel please hit the subscribe button and also the notification
bell to get latest updates and latest videos and the second thing is that although word-style
equation writing is easy but for professional documents, you must understand how latex works
because as a teacher, if you are creating educational resources you can sell those educational
resources on websites like teacherspayteachers or if you are us-based teacher you can also
sell your educational resources on Amazon Ignite website so on both of these websites
in August September, you can make a decent amount of income by selling your educational
resources
