Open-Access Clicker Question Bank for Numerical Analysis

This open educational resource (OER) is a bank of over 250 multiple-choice and true-false questions that explores the material taught in a typical introductory undergraduate course in numerical analysis. The questions are typeset in LaTeX and are intended for classroom use with clickers (also known as student response systems) where students use a hand-held clicker remote or smartphone to submit their responses to questions. The project is described in the following paper which also serves as a "how-to guide":

The complete clicker question bank, including all LaTeX source, images and supporting files can be downloaded from one of two archive files below:

• clickerQbank.zip    or    clickerQbank.tar.gz

For a quick look at the main components of the question bank, you can view the individual files below:

• clickerQbank.pdf and clickerQbank.tex: the complete LaTeX question bank and the typeset document in PDF format.

• clickerbeamer.pdf and clickerbeamer.tex: sample lecture slides formatted using the LaTeX-beamer package.

• clickerslides.pdf and clickerslides.tex: a simpler non-beamer slide format.

If you have any comments, corrections, personal experiences, or additions to the question bank, then PLEASE write to us about it!!
