TN8 Item Styleguide ::: Numbers Only Fill In EE

Numbers Only Fill In EE

The Numbers Only Fill In Equation Editor allows you to enter number forms, including numerals, decimal point, comma separator, positive and negative signs, fractions, and mixed fractions. The Numbers Only Fill In Equation Editor provides a limited, fixed palette of operation buttons used for number forms.

You will have to specify the MathML implementation through tags for the equation as follows:

	"math" : "<math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\">
			<apply>
				<eq/>
				<apply>
					<plus/>
					<apply>
						<power/>
						<ci>x</ci>
						<cn>2</cn>
					</apply>
					<apply>
						<times/>
						<cn>5</cn>
						<ci>x</ci>
					</apply>
						<cn>6</cn>
					</apply>
					<apply>
						<times/>
					<apply>
						<paren/>
						<apply>
							<plus/>
							<ci>x</ci>
							<apply>
								<csymbol cd=\"basic\" id=\"a\">input</csymbol>
								<apply>
									<csymbol cd=\"basic\">box</csymbol>
								</apply>
							</apply>
						</apply>
					</apply>
					<apply>
						<paren/>
						<apply>
							<plus/>
							<ci>x</ci>
							<apply>
								<csymbol cd=\"basic\" id=\"b\">input</csymbol>
								<apply>
									<csymbol cd=\"basic\">box</csymbol>
								</apply>
							</apply>
						</apply>
					</apply>
				</apply>
			</apply>
		</math>"

Where the above is a MathML representation of the equation you see in the editor. In this example, there are two editable parts in the equation to accept student entry, this can be done as follows:

	<apply>
		<csymbol cd="basic" id="a">input</csymbol>
		<apply>
			<csymbol cd="basic">box</csymbol>
		</apply>
	</apply>

Make sure that the id's for the "fill in" spaces are unique and are always 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', etc.
