Needless to say, I was stoked.
But then he kindly informed us that in turn for not buying a book, and all, we need to buy the homework online. Wait. What did this fool just say?! Yup. We have to BUY our homework. wait. ONLINE? how are we supposed to do math homework in Calc 2 online? Well I was upset, and unsure if I would like it. But now, being 9 weeks into the semester, I find that i like it better than the conventional form of Math homework. Although there are some glitches that if you input the answers into the wrong format or use the wrong variable because of habit or something it will count you wrong, but the teacher has the power to override the system if you bring it up. So this nifty little website gives you the question, and a spot to put the answers. It also offers help on some of them including a read about it- where it shows you the pages in the book where the topic is covered, a watch it- where you can see the instructor doing and explaining a similar problem, and a master it- where you actually do another problem that is graded step by step. Its actually a sweet program that i'm sure will be seen in more classrooms in the future.
Go math!
