Prepare a repeatable activity
Test your existing MARS sources, inputs and expected outputs. Practical MARS 4.5 compatibility is the target; check the published limitations for edge cases.
Open. Run. Understand.
Start the class with MIPS, not installation.
Give students one link to a MARS-style environment. Local work needs no account; the Teacher Kit covers migration, the first class, stable links and self-hosting.
Free and open source · Local work without an account
Share the exact activity
Use a permanent built-in example link or a fixed revision of a public project. Each student opens an independent local copy.
Keep your teaching workflow
Use your LMS for instructions and submissions. Public exercises are shareable projects; webMARS does not currently provide automatic grading or a class progress dashboard.
