Using and adapting it

The thing most easily forgotten on a worksheet is space: students need room to work, so resist squeezing it onto one page. Hints and solutions sit in their own blocks — switch them off for the class copy and on for yours, one document, two printouts. Draw figures directly rather than pasting screenshots: a screenshot breaks up close, while these figures are vector and stay sharp at any size.

Common questions

Is there enough room for students to work?
Space is the thing most easily forgotten on a worksheet. The template leaves it, and you can widen it per question — resist squeezing onto one page; students need room to work.
Do the hints and solutions print?
Only if you switch them on. They sit in their own blocks: off is the class copy, on is yours — one document, two printouts.
Do I need to know LaTeX to use this template?
No. You edit it like an ordinary document — type, drag blocks, insert formulas from a visual keyboard. LaTeX only runs underneath to set the page, and you can still export the source if you want it.
