• Log into Part I MyMathLab - Algebra for College Students, 6/e, Lial M. Johnston & C. Gee
  • Once in the online course go to Module 4 Solving Algebraic Equations, and complete the following steps:
    • Step 1--Take the Module 4 Workout, and if you score 80% or better you are considered competent in this area. So, you may move on to the next module. If you score below 80% you will have to go to Step 2.
    • Step 2--This is Required Homework that you must complete before taking the Post Test. You will be able to look at the e-text, sample problems and lessons to understand the material better. You will need to score 80% in order to take the Post Test.
    • Step 3--Take the Post Test and you move on to Module 5 if you score at least 80%. If you score below 80% you should go to Step 4 and complete your Optional Homework before attempting the Post Test again.
    • Step 4--You will also be assigned Optional Customized Homework based on your Post and PreAssessment scores.
