Textbook:
There is no printed textbook associated with this online course and no need
to visit the bookstore. The
online Lessons contain all needed learning material.
This on-line learning system gives the student the possibility of printing the complete Lessons
in a very elegant PDF format via a printer
connected to the computer. This is strongly recommended so the student will have a printed
reference to be used while working on online assignments or tests.
The student will need to purchase access to the required material all of which will
be used via the online course management system adopted by Shasta College (WebCT).
This access includes for free a downloadable on-line graphing tool to help with the
analysis of functions
and fitting of data throughout the course. Therefore there is no need to buy
expensive graphing calculators.
Important :
The student does not need to make the purchase at the time of enrollment.
In fact, since there is a no-refund policy
for the purchase of the electronic-access code, the publishers allow the students
to use the system freely for about two weeks so as to help them decide
if it is compatible with their learning styles. About fifteen days into the
course, the WebCT system will prompt the request to enter the access code
if the student wants to continue with the class. It is at this point that the student
needs to make the actual purchase. |
This purchase should be done
