Math Website Demonstrations
The Office for Academic Success will help students become familiar with the websites that support math classes at HACC, including MyMathLab, WileyPLUS, and MathZone. Assistance with accessing these websites is always available in the Math/Science Center in Whitaker 121 during its hours of operation. However, during the first week of classes, August. 24-28, students are strongly encouraged to work with a tutor to discover how to use these resources.
Math Center Hours are
Monday through Thursday: 8:00 am until 9:00 PM
Friday: 8:00 am until 3:00 PM
Saturday: 10:00 am until 2:00 PM (beginning September 12, 2009)
Getting help is simple. Students just need to go to Whitaker 121 and ask a tutor to show them how to access the appropriate websites. Large groups and classes can also be accommodated during the following hours.
Monday, August 24: 5-7:00 PM
Tuesday, August 25: 9:00 am until 3:00 PM & 5-7:00 PM
Wednesday, August 26 through Friday, August 28: 9:00 am until 3:00 PM
To help with the website registration, students must get the course ID for MyMathLab, student section number for MathZone, and URL from WileyPlus from their math instructors. Students also need to purchase new textbooks in order to have the student access codes.
