Annnounced 10/2/20: Here is a A list of your many, many free options to get live tutoring
Announced 9/28/20: Webassign Customer Service is offering Technical Office hours for anyone deal with log-in or technical problems:
- Remember that you all should be able to access Webassign for the first two weeks for free during the "Trial period". Again the link is here: https://www.webassign.net/washington/login.html
- If you have used Webassign before under a different account and you are having log-in issues (where it is trying to log-in using your old account), then try closing the browser and logging in with a different computer or browser (or incognito), just to see if you can clear the cache (this is a rare problem)
- If you continue to have technical problems logging in or if you have issues with purchasing access (which must be done by the end of week 2), then there are several options to talk directly with our UW Webassign tech representatives who are best equipment to help with your problems.
  Here are the schedule Webassign office hours (they will students in one-by-one from waiting room to help you):
  - Friday, Oct. 2, 11am to 3pm: https://cengage.zoom.us/j/97609933292
  - Monday, Oct. 5, 11am to 3pm: https://cengage.zoom.us/j/97609933292
  - Thursday, Oct. 8, 11am to 3pm: https://cengage.zoom.us/j/97609933292
Announced 9/21/20: Important textbook and Webassign information:
- All our course interaction, quizzes and live content will be on my Math 126 A, C and D Canvas Course Page. You will find pre-recorded video lectures, discussion boards, lecture quizzes, and links to live-stream lectures. So use the Canvas page for interactions and use this page for finding extra review materials.
- General course information can be found at the Math Department 126 Website.
- Your first homework assignment will be visible the first day of class. Note: UW students need to use a special login page for webassign. https://www.webassign.net/washington/login.html.
- You get free trial period access to Webassign for the first 10 days of class, so you can start the homework and the course without purchasing anything. However, before the end of the second week, you much purchase Webassign access.
- Webassign comes with an eBook of the text. You are NOT required to purchase a hardcopy of the textbook, but if you want it you can buy it from the UW book store (again, not required).
- The cheapest option (and the one I recommend) to purchase Webassign access is to follow the link UW Negotiated Price Link and purchase access.
- On exams, the only calculator that you will be allowed to use is the TI 30X IIS (any color). If you do not already own this calculator, I highly recommend that you purchase one and use it for homework as well as exams. This calculator does not do intergrals or derivatives (we expect you to show your work in computing these on the test).
