Our teaching experiences show that students' achievement is weaker in case of problems concerning continuous random variables. From school year 2012/13 we have had an opportunity to take Maple TA, the web-based test- and assessment system, into the course of education. It is sufficient for the users of Maple TA to have a browser. Maple computer algebra system, which runs on the server, assesses students' answers in an intelligent way, and compares them with the answers that are considered correct by the teacher. In our presentation we introduce some elements of Maple TA system, the didactic considerations the test sheets were made by, as well as our research results concerning the use of Maple TA.application/pdflearning mathematics using computerrepresentations of knowledge levelscalculusteaching probability theoryMaple Computer Algebra SystemMaple Test and Assessment systemTeaching probability theory by using a web based assessment system together with computer algebrafolyóiratcikkOpen AccessAnna Takács Klingnéhttps://doi.org/10.5485/TMCS.2014.0360Teaching Mathematics and Computer Science112Teach.
