Homework

Regular homework assignments will be given and monitored by the coordinator through the online tutoring and homework system "CENGAGE WebAssign™." This website will also provide a grading procedure for each student. The overall homework grade will make up 10% of the final grade.

To register on the website, you need an access code. If you have previously purchased a code for physics, you can use your old WebAssign code. If you don't have one, you can purchase it from the Meteksan bookstore.

When registering, remember to enter your Bilkent student ID number. Your homework grades will be retrieved from the WebAssign server using your student ID number. If you forget to enter it or input the wrong number, you won't receive a homework grade even if you complete the assignments.

To register for the PHYS 102 course, visit the website CENGAGE GetEnrolled The Class key field will be pre-filled for you (bilkent.tr 1591 0084); simply click the ENROLL button on the page and complete the registration.
