I know I have seen posts since 2023 asking for arithmetic questions with multiple formulas so we can ask multiple part questions that generate new values for each student. Is this anywhere close to becoming a reality? If so, can you tell me when we might see this feature?

I have been teaching with D2L Brightspace for almost 20 years now, and I have to say it feels like the math and sciences are an after thought when it comes to quizzes and testing questions inside Brightspace.

    I want to create one arithmetic question that generates a set of say 10 different values. I then would like the ability to ask students to find the mean, standard deviation, and range for this set of values in one arithmetic problem. I do not think currently this is possible.
