What MyOpenMath is
MyOpenMath is an online course and assessment system for mathematics and other quantitative subjects, available as managed hosting or open-source software for local installation. It generates homework problems and automatically grades numeric, algebraic, and graphing responses. Instructors can use messaging, discussion forums, file posting, a gradebook, and a calendar for campus-based, hybrid, or fully online courses. The system focuses on free, open textbooks, and its community shares faculty-created questions and ready-made courses. Self-study courses offer interactive assessments, instant feedback, and new versions of problems for repeated practice; some include video lessons. MyOpenMath supports LTI 1.1 and 1.3 integrations with learning management systems. Standard teacher and school use is free, and students are not charged. Support is community-based through forums and training videos rather than direct instructor or student support. The terms limit use to personal non-commercial self-study or academic use in individual classes at accredited schools, with separate written agreements for certain commercial integrations.
