Question 5:
I have been “locked out of the homework” and want permission to access the homework (and I did not get locked out of a quiz).
|
|
Instructor Answer:
You should be able to repeatedly access the homework prior to the due date without instructor permission. Come to office hours if you need help figuring out how.
The ONLY TWO cases where you can get locked out of the homework is if: one, it is past due, or two, you were locked out of a Quiz.

Question 6:
I don't understand how the MML HW problems don't agree with the problems listed on the syllabus. I'm worried that I may be missing some of the assigned HW.
|
|
Instructor Answer:
In the syllabus, the page immediately following the list of HW problems gives a full explanation of how the syllabus HW problems agree with the MML HW problems. Just know that if you complete all assigned HW problems in MML, then you have completed the full HW assignment. (Except section 8.7 only for trigonometry. These HW problems are not assigned in MML; they are to be completed on paper and handed in at class).

|
Question 7:
I am having technical issues with MML.
|
|
Instructor Answer:
If you are locked out of a Quiz or HW, then just email me and I will grant you access. You are also welcome to come by my office hours and I will help you as much as possible.
Most other technical issues will require you to directly contat MML. I highly recommend that you contact MML directly at 1-800-677-6337, Monday through Friday 8AM-8PM, SUN. 5PM-12AM EST.

|
Question 8:
Does the class require assignments out the book or just the online homework?
|
|
Instructor Answer:
All of your homework is online in MyMathLab (except section 8.7 for trigonometry).
|
| |
|
Question 9:
I did not/am unable to complete the HW or the Quiz by the due date. Can I please have an extension on the HW or Quiz?
|
|
Instructor Answer:
The course syllabus states that no extensions will be given for past due Homeworks or Quizzes. If you missed a quiz, remember that you get to drop one quiz score.
