Homework 0: Introduction to MacMillan Achieve

Due by the beginning of second class meeting

This assignment introduces you to the MacMillan Achieve system that will be used in this course for homework assignments. You will access Achieve only through the Canvas LMS. Each code is valid for one student registration. It is possible to purchase additional access to just the Achieve site if you are sharing a textbook with another student.

IF this is the first time you are logging into the MacMillan Achieve system, then do the following:

1. Click on the "Achieve Home" link in the "Achieve Access" module in Canvas.
2. Enter your first/last name and your CAMPUS email address in the Macmillan Learning Profile window. Your Canvas account uses your CAMPUS email address, so Achieve needs your CAMPUS email address to make the connection work.
3. Your course requires payment; select a payment option and follow the remaining instructions. Then you'll be enrolled in the class!
4. "HW 0: Practice Assignment" assignment in Canvas (in the Week 1 module).

All other access to the MacMillan Achieve system (not the first time):

1. Select the "HW0: Practice Assignment" assignment.

This particular assignment does not count for credit. Some questions in this introduction will ask you to deliberately open hints and submit wrong answers for you to see how the program works. Again, this assignment does not count for credit, so go ahead and try it out.

Future homework assignments on the MacMillan Achieve system WILL count for credit.

Still can't figure out how the MacMillan Achieve system works? Check out the Achieve How-To page.
