Experimentation
The best way to learn more about the system is to give it a try: the process of developing questions, whether using the web-based editor or via LaTeX, allows you to get a feel for what is possible within the system, and these experiments will not be visible to students within the course until you begin deploying assignments.On this site
More details about the capabilities of the Maple T.A. software are provided in the Intermediate and Advanced sections of this site.There are of course many additional online resources available. (Note that most of these have not been generated locally, but are freely available, and are included here for convenience.)
Built-in Documentation
Documentation about constructing questions and quizzes is also available online as part of the MapleTA package. Go to:CONTROL PANEL > MAPLE T.A. INSTRUCTOR MAIN MENU
and click on the "Help" icon in the bottom right hand corner of the page. Note, however, that the information provided within MyUni is not always directly applicable to the University of Adelaide environment. In particular, while it's written for users of Maple T.A. it's not specifically targeting users of Maple T.A. within Blackboard (ie, using Maple T.A. as a plug-in in Blackboard). The difference is relatively minor, but it can affect the degree of flexibility that's available to the instructor. Some of the difficulties that have arisen from using Maple T.A. as a plug-in are documented here.
