Getting Started
Welcome to the web version of MTH 251!
Here are some things to do right away! Each step below is important.
Your assignment for the first day of the term is to acquaint yourselves with
the various web features of this course.
- Look around Blackboard: Take time to
explore the course Blackboard site, its various features and all its links.
- Calculus on the Web: You will use the COW homework
site at Temple University both as a source of practice (ungraded)
homework problems and to complete on-line graded homework assignments.
To have your graded homework recorded in the COW gradebook you must
first get a temporary COW password and use it to
create a permanent COW password. You will receive email from
your instructor once your COW accounts have been set up, sometime during
the first week of classes.
- Getting Acquainted with COW: To explore COW, click here and set a
bookmark for future use. Look around the COW homework site: and go to Overview
> Student Manual. Read this short manual. Really! Once your
COW account has been set up, login for
a graded COW session and click on the Homework botton so see how COW
assignments are given. (You may want to print out a copy of the
homework assignments either now or later.) To log off, just close your
browser when you are finished working with COW.
Once again, welcome, good luck, and e-mail your instructor if
you are having any questions or problems.
