Use internet explorer or Mozilla on any computer and go to www.webassign.net

Find the link that says “have a class key” under ACCOUNT LOG IN and go to that link. Enter the class key is “Tarleton 1701 6835” verify the class and click yes, and then choose “I need to create a WebAssign account” and click continue. Fill in the required information (boxes with asterisk *). You choose your own ID (I recommend same as your email). Choose a password that you can remember, most people keep one password for non financial type accounts (easy to remember).  You can try it out until the trial period ends, after that you will need to use your access code or purchase one online. You only need to do all of the above first time when you are creating the account, after that you will need your id, password and institution code “Tarleton” to log in.

 

The first assignment is already up “Intro to WebAssign”. Try it.
