Units

Grasple's Units feature enables you to create exercises that check not only whether students have the correct numerical answer, but also whether they've used the appropriate units and maintained proper precision. Students receive targeted feedback that helps them understand exactly what went wrong, whether they forgot the unit entirely, used an equivalent but non-standard unit, or got the precision incorrect.

Work with Any Physical Quantity

Grasple supports a wide range of physical units across mechanics, electricity, chemistry, thermodynamics, and more.

Build Complexity as Students Advance

Build simple exercises that just require students to include any correct unit, then progress to exercises requiring specific units, and finally to exercises that demand exact precision.

Choose the Right Level of Precision

The system scales from entry level courses focused on basic unit usage to advanced engineering programmes demanding strict accuracy.

Prepare Students for Real-World Practice

Incorporating units, you're teaching students more than just mathematics. They learn to communicate their answers clearly and completely,.

Save Time While Providing Better Feedback

Students get immediate, specific feedback, and you get detailed insights into common mistakes across your class, all without spending hours on grading.

Conditional Logic for multi paths

Allows for a personalised learning journey, as a student’s answer to a given question will determine which question they receive next.

“Grasple is a very promising tool for engineering education. It just needs a little extra to go from great to excellent. And now with the units it exists".
