Otus Advanced Assessments include a Math Essay with Rich Text question type that allows students to show their work, explain their reasoning, and use mathematical formatting all in one place. This question type gives educators deeper insight into how students are thinking, not just the final answer. In this Otus Live PD session, educators will learn how to create and customize a Math Essay with Rich Text question, explore the formatting tools available to students, and review how responses appear in the Gradebook. This feature supports more authentic assessment of problem-solving and written explanations in math.
