Mathematical symbols in Quizmaker

Jul 19, 2012

We have a series of courses in the design stage that will require the insertion of mathematical symbols in Quizmaker - both in the question field and the feedback field. I see in the archives that symbols may not be supported in QM. This is going to be a big problem for this client. The first problem I have encountered is the insertion of the symbol for Σ "Sum.' There has to be a work around - yes?

Hey Deb, 

Quizmaker doesn't currently support an equation editor. With that being said, you can add math symbols in Quizmaker '09 in slide view:

1. Go to Slide view

2. Click the Insert tab

3. Click the Symbol button

4. Select "Symbol" from the Font drop down

You can then enter most types of math symbols this way.

If you're wanting to add more elaborate symbols and equations, you'll need to create them in Word, save them as an image, and then bring them into Quizmaker.

In order to get more advanced feedback like what you need, you would need to use blank slides for your feedback.
