Ink math assistant for OneNote Online is here!

[Mina Spasic]

We are excited to announce that Ink math assistant in OneNote Online is being rolled out to Office 365 subscribers on SharePoint! This digital math tutor gives you step-by-step instructions on how to solve your handwritten math problems, as well as draws graphs of your functions.

 Easy steps to get started

1. Write your equation in ink using pens from the Draw tab.
2. Use Marquee Select tool to select your ink.
3. Press Math button on the Draw tab of the ribbon.

 

We are now bringing your favorite features from OneNote for Windows 10 to all the browsers:

1. Ink to Math - Pressing Ink to Math button on the Math pane will convert your ink into a typed equation.
2. Solution steps - Ink math assistant can show you a step-by-step solution to your equation.
3. Graph in 2D - You can see an interactive graph of your function.Tip: Use arrows around the graph to move its position. Use buttons below the graph to adjust zoom level.
4. Changing parameter values - If your function has parameters (e.g. y=ax+b), you will be able to change their values and observe how the graph changes.
5. Key graph features - Ink math assistant can show you additional information about the graph of your function e.g. minima and maxima points, domain and range, zeros and y-intercept, asymptotes etc.
6. Insert graph on page - You can insert an image of your graph to the page.

 As always, we would love to hear your feedback, so please suggest and vote on future ideas on OneNote UserVoice page.

This looks like a fantastic resource! Is it possible to input your own solutions into the system so that you could use the terminology the children are familiar with? 

[Marius Pretorius]

@Claire O HalloranI haven't seen that feature mentioned anywhere. I'm not sure what "engine" is used to drive the solution steps, but I can imagine that it is not a trivial task to make that customizable.

[Mina Spasic]

@Claire O Halloran @Marius Pretorius currently there are no options for customizing the solution steps. If you think this is a valuable feature, please use https://onenote.uservoice.com/ to vote for your idea.

Thanks!

Is it available for Office 365 Education A1 too?

Can we integrate this tool with Web Applications using Javascript or so?

May be it is at a price, but integrations will help the website creators to allow users to use this wonderful tool?

Any idea why our Online OneNote Math Assistant does not give us the option to show steps and immersive reader?  We get the solve option/graph option but after that, we don't get the option to show steps and read in immersive reader.  Any ideas?

[Mina Spasic]

@Rrecinos we are currently facing some issues in OneNote Online, this should be fixed in the next couple of days. Thanks for your patience :)

Hello, I am in Nigeria.  I have an issue with the One Note: the features I see on the One Note are not rich.  It does not have Math tools. I have checked One Note online and it does not have Math Tools too. 

So I want to know if the feature is not available in Nigeria.

I have an issue with onenote math tools in my . I have checked the online onenote but I haven't seen the math tool feature. Please how can I access this feature or are they not available for some users? 

[Mina Spasic]

Hi @Michael_Udo @Wisdom_J Math tools in OneNote Online (in the browser) should be available worldwide (so yes, Nigeria too). You need to have a O365 subscription - through your school or a personal one.

I tried registering for office 365 but Nigeria was not included in the list of location to be inserted, what should  I do to complete the registration
