Using CAPA
CAPA is a "Computer-Assisted Personalized Approach for
assignments, quizzes and examinations." The system was developed at MSU
and is used at over 50 colleges and universities in the US and abroad.
Each assignment sheet has your Name and also a specific CAPA
ID number.
- Go to http://capa4.lite.msu.edu/class.html
- From the pull-down menu, choose phy193s3
- Enter your student number and CAPA ID in the designated fields.
- Click on the appropriate 'here' button to go to the main menu.
- Choose 'Try Current Set'. Your assignment will then be displayed.
- Follow the instructions before you, and remember to 'Submit All Answers'
before you exit.
In the case of partial credits for exams choose xph193H from the pull-down
menu.
It is recommended that you answer the questions and work the problems before
you 'login' to the computer. Discussion of concepts and methods of solving
problems with fellow students is also strongly encouraged. One opportunity is
the discussion forum provided via the DISCUSS-button on the CAPA page for
each home work set. A TA will be online at times still to be announced and
participate in the discussion.
