AiM is a system for computer-aided learning and assessment in mathematics. It is built on top of the symbolic mathematics program Maple, and thus has a rich understanding of mathematics built in. This allows it to randomize questions in complex ways, detect correct answers given in unusual forms, trap common errors and give intelligently tailored feedback and so on.
AiM is an open source project. This means that you are free to download it, use it, and even change it to suit your needs. To learn more about it you can have a look at the documentation or try it out by taking an AiM quiz. Please visit the AiM Community site with its discussion forum. AiM was originally written by Norbert Van den Bergh and Theodore Kolokolnikov at the University of Gent in Belgium, but now is being developed by an international team under the lead of Neil Strickland at the University of Sheffield and Chris Sangwin at the University of Birmingham. It is distributed WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY under the GNU General Public Licence.
