Other Helpful TIPS:
•
Do not CUT AND PASTE your answers into the program. Use the palette that is provided or
answers will be counted wrong.
•
On Homework, click on “similar exercise” to keep working a problem after 3 attempts. The
system allows you to keep working that problem type for credit, but will change the variables after 3
attempts to make sure you understand the concept. (Note: If your instructor limits your attempts,
you will be counted incorrect after these attempts and must move on to the next problem.)
•
The MOST COMMON student tech support problems are the following:
–
Forgetting username and passwords (multiple accounts and multiple email addresses
complicates this. Be sure to write down the account information you register with even if you
think you can remember! Place it in your Smart Phone or another place that is private but you
have easy access to when doing your homework.)
–
Ignoring the BROWSER TUNE UP. This often results in issues with not being able to see all of
the materials in the course. Buttons will be missing or won’t function properly if the system
requirements are not met. Taking the time to run this is the best defense against frustration
during “Crunch time” when your homework is due!
(and don’t forget- a separate browser tune up is needed for any computer you use!)
If you experience these or any other problems, check with a classmate to see if they are
experiencing the same thing. This is a good way to figure out if the issue is caused by
your computer settings or not.
