Rubrics

Math and LaTeX

Typeset math anywhere you write feedback.

Rubric items and comments render math with LaTeX. Wrap inline math in single dollar signs and display math in double dollar signs.

Examples

You type Students see
Forgot chain rule on $f(x) = \sin(3x^2)$ Forgot chain rule on f(x) = sin(3x²)
$$\int_0^1 x^2\,dx = \frac{1}{3}$$ The integral displayed on its own line

Notes

  • Use single backslashes: \frac{1}{3}, not \\frac{1}{3}. If you paste LaTeX from another tool and it shows raw double-backslash commands, remove the extra backslash.
  • Standard commands are supported: fractions, roots, integrals, derivatives, Greek letters, set notation, intervals, matrices.
  • Bold prose uses markdown asterisks (**important**), not \textbf{}.

Dictating math

You can also speak math instead of typing it. Say "f prime of x equals six x times cosine of three x squared" and InteGrade typesets it. See Voice to LaTeX.
