Overview

In this webinar, we will be showing how an instructor of a course can create automated assessments of MATLAB code for learners to solve in MATLAB.  Anyone that teaches a course that involves homework, quizzes, or exams based on MATLAB should watch this webinar.

We will show the features of MATLAB Grader for creating the assessments, and then demonstrate how learners can solve a problem in a MATLAB Online session in their browser.  Viewers will learn what goes into making a good MATLAB skills assessment, and how learners can demonstrate mastery of their MATLAB skills, regardless of the academic discipline they teach.
