I would love to be able to type mathematical symbols.

To use the tool plickers in math classes, it would be very usefull to add pictures not only in the questions but also in the 4 answers. A equation editor to use in questions and answers would also be very usefull (e.g. on www.learningapps.org they use Latex-Code to add an equation).

Please add math symbols and the ability to put fractions and exponents into the multiple choice lines.

Plickers - there are a couple of other suggestions with very high-scoring votes that relate to functionality for math classes. If you add them together, you can see users are very strongly asking for more support for math classes.

YES... Great concept and works well but most often need make symbols for teaching Geometry, biology, chemistry and physics.

As a geometry teacher it is vital I am able to upload IMAGES. It is extremely difficult if not impossible to ask students to find an angle when the problem consists of a bunch of lines, segments, angles, etc.
PLEASE CREATE IMAGE UPLOADING!!! -

Please please please!! I know we can do a work around with images in the question, but we can't' do this in the answers.

The ability to use text formatting would be very, very beneficial!

For those who use TeXify-Plickers, you can easily get your equations in proper LaTeX with this simple online editor from codecogs : https://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php

Hey dev, you can easily do this by using an open source text editor designed to simplify website content creation, like Ckeditor, TinyMCE or even some markup langage... It just generate cool secured html code !

As a workaround until this is improved, some characters can be input using unicode - i use this for subscripts and superscripts as well as arrows for equations. (I teach Chemistry).
Easiest is to copy and paste the unicode characters, for example from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_subscripts_and_superscripts or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_operators_and_symbols_in_Unicode

I agree having math symbols would be extremely helpful with plickers!

Without super and subscript maths equations look way more confusing than they need to be. I can get around the question part by making it in another program and taking a picture, but frequently the answer needs exponents/indices which is the confusing part for students.
It would also be amazing if we could have proper fraction support (like equation editor in Microsoft Word).

Spacifically Spanish characters like accent marks and upside down punctuation marks.

Definitely worth it as typing chemical formulae and equations using unicodes is painfully slow.

Yes it will be great to have a simple math editor (french teacher)

I agree, this would be a great added feature! For now, I just screenshot the equations I'm using and post the equation and the answers as an image and for the answer choices I don't type anything, I just leave it blank because the image shows the properly formatted equations as a part of the question's image.
