Pedagogical experiments with MathCheck in university teaching

Abstract: MathCheck is a relatively new online tool that gives students feedback on their solutions to elementary university mathematics and theoretical computer science exercises. MathCheck was designed with constructivism learning theory in mind and it differs from other online tools as it checks the solutions step by step and shows a counter-example if the step is incorrect. It has been in student use since the autumn of 2015 and under design-based research from the first online day. The main research questions of th… Show more

“…In addition, the feedback provided by the software was assisted the problem solver to make effective decisions and actions. Lastly, in a study, Kaarakka, Helkala, Valmari and Joutsenlahti (2019) examined the impact of an online tool, called MathCheck, on students' level of conceptual understanding. Briefly, what made this tool potent was that it was checking the problem solution step by step and providing detailed feedback to the problem solver, more than an incorrect/correct verdict.…”
