This post has 2 sets of instructions.
First, you will be setting up an online subscription to http://www.phschool.com/ , a website provided by the publishers of our textbook. This site has many resources, some of which we'll be using together and others that you may want to explore on your own.
** Depending on your arrangements with your parent(s) or guardian for using the Internet, you may need to check with him/her/them before creating this subscription. Setting up an account will require you to enter your first and last name and email address. The website you are signing up to access is an educational website, and they do have a privacy policy. But please check with your parent(s) or guardian first if you need to. If this is not something that you and he/she/they are comfortable with, just let me know.
Second, after you set up your subscription, you will be visiting http://www.campbellbiology.com/ to view the resources for chapter 2. You will actually be using the site that goes with the 8th edition of the text, which I hope we will be using come September. Although you have the 7th edition at home for the summer, there aren't too many differences between the 7th and 8th editions that should affect using the website resources.
Part 1 - Setting up your subscription
1. Go to www.phschool.com/access . Follow the instructions on the first screen.
2. Where it says "Already Have an Access Code?" click the link "Covered Titles."
3. Select "Campbell, Biology 8e AP* Edition" (yes, 8th edition).
4. On the next screen, click "Student Registration."
5. Review the License Agreement and Privacy Policy; then at the bottom click "I accept." You may want to have a parent or guardian review the Agreement and Policy before you accept it.
6. The next screen will ask, "Do you have a Pearson Education account?" Select no.
7. It will then prompt you to create a login name and password. (Obviously, make sure you record or remember these for future access.)
8. Enter the access code: SSNAST-CHOLI-SPEND-MINNA-LENTO-FFLSE .
9. Enter the account information that is requested.
10. I think this should do it. However, if there are other steps that follow, you should be able to follow the prompts to complete the setup.
Now for the good stuff!
Part 2: Accessing the website
1. Go to http://wps.aw.com/bc_campbell_biology_8ap/ .
2. You will probably be prompted to log in before it takes you to the main page. Enter the login and password information for the subscription you created. ** Note: If it won't let you log in, there may be a lag time between when you set up the account and when you can use it to access the site. Try again later or the next day.
3. Use the drop-down menu at the top (which currently shows "Welcome") to select Chapter 2. Click "go".
4. You should be in business! Click on any of the links to explore what's available for this chapter. Use the drop-down menu again to navigate to any other chapter.
If you have any problems, please email me.
