Maple T.A. is a web-based automated testing and assessment system developed by Maplesoft. It is used to deliver tests, homework, assignments, exams, placement tests, and practice questions to students, and then automatically grades the results.
Maple T.A. is based on the mathematical software Maple, also from Maplesoft. It includes functionality that supports assessment in mathematics-based courses in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). These include its ability to grade free-response mathematics questions where the correct answer can be written in many different but mathematically equivalent forms, or where there are infinitely many correct answers. It also has 2-D and 3-D plotting capabilities, algorithmic question generation that can be based on mathematical properties, standard mathematical notation for question display and student response, and graph sketching and other technical question types.
Maple T.A. includes connectivity features and add-ons for integration with course management systems, such as: Blackboard, Canvas, Moodle, Brightspace, and Sakai.
