Make sure you select “MathML” as the standard clipboard format for equations. Copy and paste your equations directly into Drillster. Microsoft Word contains an equation editor for easy authoring of equations.MathType by Design Science allows you to draw an equation with a pen, digitize it and copy and paste the equation into Drillster in MathML format.Online MathML conversion tool by Wolfram Research allows direct conversion to MathML from Mathematica notation and standard text-based notation.These products have been tested to work correctly with Drillster: Luckily there are many external tools available that enable users to design their equations with a graphical user interface, and subsequently create the MathML code as a file export or through copying and pasting. Manually typing in MathML code is not always easy. This equation describes the combustion of methane: MathML can also be used for reaction equations in chemistry and physics. It is even possible to include colors in equations: This is the well known equation for solving quadratic polynomials:
Since equations are handled as images by Drillster, there is no way an equation can be entered as the answer to an open ended question. It is possible to add a caption to an equation by clicking on the equation image. These equations are given a red border in the editor. For this reason it is always advisable to keep a separate (text) file with your equation definitions.Īn equation can be removed simply by clicking the small “×” next to the equation image, just like you would remove a regular image.Įquations can also be inserted as incorrect alternatives. Changing an equation is best done by adding an alternative to the incorrect equation with your corrections, and subsequently deleting the incorrect alternative. Since the equation is converted to an image, it is not possible to edit the equation contents once an equation has been created. If your code contains an error, or if Drillster is unable to parse your MathML code, the code is saved as literal text instead. If Drillster recognizes your code as valid MathML, the text is automatically converted into a graphical representation of the equation. Equations are added to a drill by simply typing in or copying and pasting the MathML XML code into the edit screen.
