USING THE ELECTRONIC HOMEWORK

Electronic homework, through Sapling Learning (http://www.saplinglearning.com/), will count for 10% of your grade. Assignments will be due at 11:59 pm on the day scheduled at https://eee.uci.edu/14s/40660/assignments.html. and will be available roughly one week before they are due.

To set up your account:
1. Go to http://saplinglearning.com and click on your country  ("US Higher Ed" or "Canada") at the top right. 
2a. If you already have a Sapling Learning account, log in and skip to step 3.
2b. If you have Facebook account, you can use it to quickly create a SaplingLearning account. Click “Create an Account”, then “Create my account through Facebook”. You will be prompted to log into Facebook if you aren't already. Choose a username and password, then click “Link Account”. You can then skip to step 3.
2c. Otherwise, click "create account”. Supply the requested information and click "Create my new account". Check your email (and spam filter) for a message from Sapling Learning and click on the link provided in that email.
3. Find your course in the list (you may need to expand the subject and term categories) and click the link.
4. If your course requires a key code, you will be prompted to enter it. Select a payment option and follow the remaining instructions.
5. Work on the Sapling Learning training materials. The activities, videos, and information pages will familiarize you with the Sapling Learning user environment and serve as tutorials for efficiently drawing molecules, stereochemistry, etc. within the Sapling Learning answer modules. These training materials are already accessible in your Sapling Learning course.

Once you have registered and enrolled, you can log in at any time to complete or review your homework assignments. During sign up - and throughout the term - if you have any technical problems or grading issues, send an email to support@saplinglearning.com explaining the issue. The Sapling support team is almost always more able (and faster) to resolve issues than your instructor.
