HOMEWORK

Never work more than one assignment ahead of schedule. Sometimes assignments may need to be modified and I cannot make those changes if a student has started an assignment!

You get immediate feedback. The check means you answered correctly.

Work your problem on paper, then enter your answer. You will notice a toolbox at the left to help enter fractions, exponents, roots, etc. Click ‘Check Answer’. Do not click ‘Submit Work’ until you are certain all answers are correct.

If you give an incorrect answer, try again. Or use some ‘helps’ listed at the right.

If you want to see a similar problem solution, click on ‘View an Example’.

You can view how the problem should be worked.

You could also ‘Ask’ your instructor for help. Just type your message and send.
