Instructions for Using CAPA
(PHY183, Fall 2001, Section2)
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.
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.
Each assignment sheet has your Name and also a specific CAPA
ID
number. You may enter solutions either through vt100 emulation (Telnet)
or through the web.
