Using this courseware

This courseware enables the student to view all course material on-line, including example problems, exercises, and interactive tools such as the function grapher. The interface itself has been designed to be as intuitive as possible, but help is available for the following topics:

• The interface
• Navigating through the course material
• About the Learning Engine course software

The Course Interface

The course has been designed arond the Netscape Navigator web browser. The course documents are written in HTML, so the course webspace is navigated just the same as a regular World Wide Web document.

The main display areas of the interface are the menubar, the table of contents, and the main frames. Other frames may be used in various places, but these are the main ones.
