- Before you can work with MML, you need
to install some plug-ins. If you have used MML before, you should
reinstall the plug-ins again in case the plug-ins you have are outdated. Download the
necessary plug-ins by logging into your course, clicking
Announcements on
the left side of the screen, and then clicking on MML Browser
Check.
It will be the first link you find.
Follow the instructions until you install all the plug-ins.
- While installing the
plug-ins, a bar may appear at the top of the page saying that the site
might require an ActiveX control, right click to install the ActiveX
control.
- After you finish
installing the plug-ins, you must close all your browsers so that the
installation is complete.
- Login to
http://www.coursecompass.com and
you are ready to go. You do not have to do this again.
Notes
-
The main page is the 'eBook'
. In there, you can read the online textbook, watch the video lectures and
work out some problems.
-
To
do the online homework, select the
'Do Homework' tab. When you are done, make sure to click on Back to Exercise
List and click on
Hand in Homework.
You may submit the homework as many times as you want. You can keep
working the homework until you obtain a perfect score. Every time you submit the
homework, it will save your previous work, and your homework grade will be updated in
your Gradebook. I suggest
you to submit the homework several times as you work the problems. Do not wait to
finish a homework to submit it. In that way you will not forget, and in case of
a power outage or computer freezes, you will not lose your work. Online homework
may consist of more than one section. You
need to login to find out the sections covered in each homework.
-
To
do the online Quizzes, select the
'Take a Quiz' tab. Click on the quiz number, and then Click in
the 'I am ready to start' button. When you are done, click the Submit
button. If you do not submit the quiz, you might lose your work, and the
computer will count the quiz as taken.
- If you open a problem and a
small square appears in a top left corner with a square, a circle and a triangle
inside, or the problem does not appear, it means that you do not have the plug-ins installed, or
that your plug-ins are corrupted. In that case, you need to install the plug-ins
again.
-
It is the student's
responsibility to check their Gradebook to ensure that the
homework was submitted successfully.
-
You can use MML from any computer. If you
plan to use computers other than the ones in the Mathematics Lab at the East Campus,
you must download and install plug-ins. The computers at the
Computer Labs in other Valencia campuses may not have the appropriate plug-ins
installed.
-
Read through the section in your
textbook and work along with the textbook examples.
- Remember
to do the
textbook homework first, and then the online homework. In that way, you
will not waste your time.
