REGISTERING FOR MASTERING PHYSICS NEW USERS To sign up for Mastering Physics, you will need the 6-word Registration Code that comes with the Mastering Physics Packet packaged with your textbook. If you have purchased a new textbook (from the bookstore) that is not packaged with Mastering Physics, take your receipt to the Customer Service Desk at the bookstore and ask for Paula Bryant.) If you have purchased a used textbook, then you will have to purchase Mastering Physics separately. The bookstore should have a few of these. You should also be able to use a credit card at the Mastering Physics web site. To sign up, you will need to go to masteringphysics.com and then go through the registration process for the stand-alone version. Once you are registered, then go through the logon process for the stand-alone version. At this point, the program will ask you for an identification code for our class. This code is MPADAMS0005 It will also ask for your student ID number. BE SURE TO USE YOUR ASU POSTING ID, in the form 1234-567. What if I don't know my POSTING ID? USERS WITH ACTIVE ACCOUNTS If you were registered in my Fall class, then you will not be able to register for my Spring class until Jan 16. If you were registered in someone else's MP class, then you may be able to register earlier. Simply login under the Stand Alone label. You will then be given the opportunity to register for a new class. The class code is MPADAMS0005. Don't forget to USE YOUR ASU POSTING ID for your student ID number. TIPS ON SUBMITTING HW ASSIGNMENTS WITH MASTERING PHYSICS Please, never use your browser's BACK button in the middle of an Mastering Physics session. The system is designed to only move in the forward direction. The way things are set up at this time, you will have six opportunities to answer each problem (this may be reduced to four as the year proceeds). Always use three significant figures in your numerical answers (unless the program gives other instructions for a particular problem). In most cases, numerical answers must be correct to within 2% (if a certain number of sig figs is requested, then the restriction is sometimes tightened). If you are having trouble seeing a figure in the Problem View, try using the Print View.
