Package: wims (4.00-4+squeeze1)

[ Source: wims  ]

server for educative contents as courses, exercises, exams

WIMS is an acronym for WWW Interactive Mathematics Server. Nowadays WIMS serves much more than mathematic contents (physics, chemistry, biology, languages).

The WIMS educational platform features a rich set of resources and exercises either with free access or for personalised study.

 * exercises with automatic feedback and correction, which allow the
   learners to work at their own pace;
 * interactive exercices with randomly assigned data, which allow
   the learners to work on the same type of exercise but with
   different data and as often as they wish;
 * exercises with an automatic scoring system, which enhances learner
   motivation;
 * user-friendly graphics and calculation tools;
 * courses and documents with hyperlinks to the exercise pool, and also
   eventually randomly built parts to exemplify theories
 * support for exams with pre-published contents. As each individual exam
   will have randomly chosen data, training is possible but writing each
   response in advance is not.

This package contains the WIMS fast CGI server, serving OEF documents. OEF is the acromym for "Open Exercise Format", a very high-level language which allow authors to focus on pedagogical issues.
