Rohit, I understand what you mean! "To plot points with labels and no tooltip" . The tooltip is used to display the correct answer! This is something I have not thought of and I like it a lot. it is brilliant! I have made a mental note of it and I will use it going forward.

Most computer based assessments or Maths learning, including MOOCs, evaluate learners' understanding of specific area of Maths based on a number of correct answers. Arguably the activities where learners are required to fill in the gaps are essentially the same even when there are multiple correct fillings. As you might have noticed I have announced a very ambitious project "A New Kind of School" last summer to provide people of all background and abilities an opportunity to experience Stephen's A New Kind of Science and learn maths. I planned to present the project in details at the Wolfram Conference this month, but for some technical reasons it will not happen.On a positive note it gave us a bit of extra time to develop the technical proof of concept. It was inspired by Conrad's computer based maths

Students in general and secondary school pupils specifically are answer driven i.e. they focus on getting the correct answer while they should be focusing on the solution i.e. on steps they have taken to obtain the answer. My solution of choice is both simple and efficient: I display an answer and ask learners to check if it is correct or not. Alternatively, I tell the correct answer and ask students to find out how it was obtained. Obviously, this is a variation of The Moore Method, it is also known as "confirmation inquiry ", a type of inquiry based learning. Speaking about a big picture in teaching and learning maths by asking these questions I create the circumstances for learners to experience "mathematical proof" , students are known to struggle with "proof" questions.

Vladimir,

Another option for visualizing the solution is to draw arrows from the axes to the point when the mouse is over a point. e.g

epilog = {Mouseover[
      {PointSize[Large], Red, Point[#]},
      {{Green, Thick, Arrowheads[{0.0, 0.03}], Arrow[{{0, #[[2]]}, #}]},
       {Green, Thick, Arrowheads[{0.0, 0.03}], Arrow[{{#[[1]], 0}, #}]},
       {Style[Text[#[[1]], {#[[1]]/2, #[[2]] + 0.2}], 12, Black]},
       {Style[Text[#[[2]], {#[[1]] - 0.2, #[[2]]/2}], 12, Black]}
       }] & /@ points};

And add Epilog -> epilog to the ListPlot. When the mouse hovers over the {2, -2} point:

Hi Vladimir,

Sounds like a fun project. How about something like this.

range = {-6, 6};
numPoints = 5;
points = RandomInteger[range, {numPoints, 2}];
labels = Alphabet[] // ToUpperCase // Take[#, numPoints] &;
tooltipPoints = Tooltip[#, StringTemplate["(``, ``)"][Sequence @@ ##]] & /@ points;

To plot points with labels and no tooltip

ListPlot[points -> labels,
 PlotRange -> Transpose[{range, Reverse@range}],
 AspectRatio -> 1,
 GridLines -> Full,
 GridLinesStyle -> Dotted,
 PlotStyle -> {PointSize[Large], Red},
 PlotRangePadding -> 1,
 AxesLabel -> {"X", "Y"},
 AxesStyle -> Arrowheads[{0.0, 0.04}],
 ImageSize -> 400]

To plot points with tooltips, replace points -> labels with tooltipPoints -> labels.
