Accessing Your Course

MyLab / Mastering

Your course is using MyLab / Mastering by Pearson, which requires the purchase of an access code. This code is usually packaged with a new textbook, but may also be purchased separately from the MyLab / Mastering website if it is not included with your book.

Information about MyLab / Mastering can be found at http://pearsonmylabandmastering.com. Please check the Systems Requirements page to verify your computer compatibility.

Your instructor will provide an additional course code you will need to access your specific course.

Purchasing Your Books and Other Course Materials

While you may purchase your books and other course materials from the provider of your choice (using the ISBN number available through the course's academic department where applicable to ensure the correct version), both the campus bookstore and our online bookstore, guarantee that they stock the correct version for your course.

Approximately 3 weeks prior to the start of the session you can use the link below to see the list of books that have been selected by your instructor. If you have any questions about the course materials listed, please contact your instructor or the academic department directly.

Other Information about the Course
Dear E-Learning Student,

This course is set up a little differently than other E-Learning courses you may have taken. We will be using MyLabs as the main point of entrance into our course. There is a required access code that must be purchased for this web site. The code is included with the purchase of a new text book. Text books can be purchased at the Bucks County Community College bookstore. There is an e-book available in MyLabs so a paper textbook is optional. All homework and quizzes will be completed using MyLabs. In order to register with MyLabs you must have this access code. All assignments will have a due date. If you fall further than two weeks behind in your assignments, I reserve the right to withdrawal you from the course. The Orientation will help clarify the many questions you may have. It will also be a good opportunity to learn how to navigate the MyLabs site. Please, if you have any questions prior to receiving your e-mail about orientation, feel free to contact me at acquavel@bucks.edu . (E-mail is the best way to contact me) If you have trouble with the MyLabs program, you can call their support line…1-800-677-6337. I look forward to working with each of you.
