I'm very new to WeBWork and my students just completed their first assignment and this leaves me with two questions.
(1) For one of the questions the following shows what the student entered and the evaluation by WeBWork

0.2499 | ![]() |

0.25 | ![]() |

For the third entry, the student's answer and what WeBWork shows as the answer are the same, but it is evaluated to be incorrect. Why does this happen? For reference, I the problem is from the NPL: Library/UCSB/Stewart5_2_1/Stewart5_2_1_3.pg
(2) I am using WeBWork as a just-in-time teaching tool, not for online quizzes and traditional homework (and so I am not using it how most people use it) and for this reason, I don't need the radomizing of numbers and equations that are in most of the NPL problems, in fact it is not good in this situation. I tried modifying one problem for something else and destroyed it. So I am hoping that someone might be able to give me the phrase/code to look for to simply remove the randomization process from a problem. Maybe this is too much for now, but I'd like to learn.
Last, if someone reads this who is also using it for just-in-time teaching type uses, please let me know as we might be able to share some ideas.
Thanks,
Amelia
