MasteringChemistry questions

[robert zellmer]

I got a question from someone about MC and whether there was any 
homework due which
was for credit. The following are open.  Everything is set up so you can 
always work on
them, even if past their due dates, you simply won't get credit.

There are two tutorials which are *NOT for credit* and just for 
practice.  The "Introduction
to MasteringChemistry" and the "Chemistry Primer".  The primer is a 
review of several
things from 1210.  If you already have experience with 
MasteringChemistry you can
probably skip the "Introduction to MasteringChemistry".

There's also something relatively new to MC, Dynamic Study Modules 
(DSM).  I'm not
using these this semester for credit.  However, they are always 
available in Mastering even
if I don't technically activate them.  So just in case, you may want to 
do these.  There's an
"Intro to DSM" module "due" by Wed., 6/5, at 11:59 PM.  There's another DSM
dealing with key math skills (mainly dimensional analysis problems) due 
by 11:59 PM
on Wed, 6/5.  Again, *neither of these are for credit*.  These modules 
are set up by MC
such that as you work on questions and get them correct it has you do 
fewer problems and
if you struggle with them it will ask the questions again or give 
others.  After you've reached
a certain percentage of correct answers you're finished.  However, the 
problems are not in
any particular order so it makes it difficult to work section by section 
from the book, as you
should be.  They might be useful when studying for the midterm or if 
you're really struggling.

Finally, there's a tutorial module for some concepts from chapter 11 for 
practice. This
is for *credit*.  It is open now and has a due date of Thur., 6/6, 11:59 
PM.  I've set this
due date because you need to review this material right away.

I'll send some more info about MC in the next day or so.   You need to 
check it often to see
what's there and when they're due.  I would say to check every day to 
see what's new.  I won't
usually announce when the problems have gone up or when they're due.  
The best way to
view things is in Calendar format.  This makes it much easier to see due 
dates.
