Computer Use In and Out of the Classroom

• Etiquette for using computers during class
• We'll be using the computer algebra system Maple throughout the semester. As long as your computer is connected to the campus network, you may use Maple on it -- for this semester only. Here are the instructions for installing Maple on a Mac and for installing Maple on a Windows PC.
• Mike Pepe of Seattle Central Community College has written a nice Maple Essentials tutorial. When you click here it will download onto your computer.
• A good resource is Waterloo Maple's Student Center. Be sure to check out the tutorials at the link Downloading free Maple tutorials - Maple Essentials
