Minerva - change to the way LaTeX is rendered

The way LaTeX is rendered will change in Minerva w/c 25 August (after resits). A new MathJax integration will instead render any LaTeX entered in the Minerva content editor. The integration is the first step by our supplier (it is under development and we expect more MathJax features to follow). The new integration will be beneficial to students as the current method for rendering often fails and also produces formula as an image which is not accessible.

We have observed that in switching to MathJax, LaTeX with styling added via the Minerva math editor will fail to render. However, the LaTeX is still present and can be edited.

If you use LaTeX in your module, we can give you early access so you can observe whether this change will affect your content. Please e-mail us at [email protected] if you use LaTeX in the Minerva content editor.
