Abstract:
The paper presents main ideas, aims and implementation of ForMath — intelligent tutoring system in mathematics
which is a project developed at Silesian University of Technology. Up till now, the project has contained
mathematical problems for engineering students, but in the future it will be adapted to other courses. The proposed
platform has both the advantages of e-learning courses and innovative elements such as interactivity
(hints or theory on the user’s request, suggested individual path, remedial sessions when necessary) and the
accessibility of the system for students with disabilities.
