WIRIS is a suite of mathematicals tools for education. This suite contains WIRIS editor [2] for formula edition in online contents, WIRIS CAS [3] for creating interactive mathematical sessions, WIRIS quizzes [4] for online questionnaires with mathematical capabilities, such as random questions and automatic evaluation, and WIRIS whiteboard [5], a collection of exercises and laboratories with interactive mathematics.
