It is recommendable for the participants to be familiar with the very basics of STACK. It helps if the participant has basic knowledge of JavaScript.
Some additional information:
- Youtube STACK questions with JSXGraph video showcasing
-STACK questions (file contains the STACK questions that are discussed in this workshop (in Moodle XML format) for those who want to study them closer on their own)
STACK questions importation in Moodle (the documentation about how to import STACK questions in Moodle)
You can find updated answers and links to the new STACK questions here: https://stack-demo.maths.ed.ac.uk/demo/mod/page/view.php?id=1905.
