- WeBWork:
Some courses may use WeBWork, an online evaluation tool.
The homework problems can be put on the web and students
enter answers to them
on the web. Students may try to answer WeBWork problems more than once. After
each try, a message appears telling the students whether the answer is correct or not.
This allows students to find out what they did wrong and hopefully better understand
question. In order to use WeBWork you will need a computer with access to a web browser.
It can be either your own or one in any of the ASU computer labs.
You can login to webwork at WeBWork.
