Two things to do as class starts

If you were not in physics last year you will want to take care of these three things.

Setting up an Online Homework Account:
Please go to this link and start an online homework account. Choose "I need a UT EID" below the red button. In the next windows and pages answer the questions to get an ID number from the University of Texas.  After you submit your information it will send your ID code to your email account. With this code you will will sign in to my class and start the first assignment. You may proceed to sign in now or bring your EID code and password on Wednesday. On Thursday/Friday we will log in as a class, I will start accepting your enrollment and we will start the first assignment.

This is how to sign in:
Return to the link above and log in.
You will then need to select a class based on a unique number. For AP Physics the unique number is 223. Enter the number and then select "look up course info". Scroll down by clicking the arrow on the window that appears through the many other classes designated with that unique number until you find AP Physics (Grant High school 2016 Fall). It will probably be the only one. Select it and then select request enrollment.

I will have to admit you into the class. The next time you log in, after I admit you, you will be able to use the "select course" and "select assignment" windows to start the Kinematics homework.



Installing LoggerPro on your home computer:
As a Grant High School student you have the right to install Logger Pro on your home computer.  The following installation links will require a password to decompress.  You will need to get that password from me.


Here are links to download the software you requested from Vernier Software & Technology. After the file has downloaded to your computer, double-click the file, and enter the password to install the software.
