Also, please post maths questions in the maths forum in future
Seems like it's more of a "how do I insert maths according to semi-arbitrary notation rules" question than maths, judging from the above... why would teachers impose this tediousness on students?

I think it's so that they don't have to mark the homework themselves

No idea - Mymaths is not so fussy.
I prefer to mark stuff in the 'old fashioned' way ... when students do GCSE on the computer then I might change.

I'm alright with computers marking some off the more standard stuff, multiple-choice, straightforward numerical answers questions, etc... but making them mark proofs is completely against the spirit of mathematics and a definite step in the wrong direction, I think.

The videos are good and the online worksheets can be very useful for certain topics but I really don't like its attempts to mark working as shown in this thread. That should be left to a teacher.
