Class co-Web: Follow the links to Math 1502 -- here

Directions for the Computer Project:

• Download the maple projet(s) Here . This is a Maple file. If you have your brouwser set up for ".mws" to start Maple as a helper app, then all is fine. Otherwise just save the file and restart it with Maple.
• Work the project in groups of two or three, or four

  Edit that page by adding between *'s:
  

  *Prject two: Name, name name*
  Like *Project 2: Maria Calas, Birgit Neilson and J Sutherland* After you do that, hit save. The page will now have a link that looks like Maria Calas, Birgit Neilson and J. Sutherland [Create] Go to this link, and your CoWewb page will be created. Edit there. Flat text if fine.
• Your CoWeb page should contain:
  • A description of the problem in English
  • The mathods that you used to solve the problem.
  • Any problems (computer problems, maple problems, group problems, etc...) that you encountered in working the project.
  • Any useful hint you have for others.
  • Anything else you want to add.
• The due date is April 17.

  The midterm course/instructor opinion surveys will be online starting this Sunday, Feb. 27th through Friday March 3rd. This is your chance to give your instructors feedback that they can use to improve their classes while you are still there! The midterm survey has been changed from last term and so it should be more applicable for a course that is still in progress. Unfortunately, you must first bypass all the old questions to get to the new ones, due to a programming glitch, so please persevere...

  Even if you don't think the survey applies for a particular class that you are taking, please take the time to log on to the system and fill out the comments for the instructor - they are interested in hearing (constructive, polite, etc.) feedback! [And the comment section has been enlarged to allow for more comments.] To get to the surveys, go to http://www.coursesurvey.gatech.edu

  Your login is the same as for registration - use your banner id and pin.
