The tutoring program, Mastering Physics, is a web-based tool for first-year physics students at the elite Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Students set up profiles and log on to get their work. How much does MasteringPhysics cost? Students can't do Mastering assignments until you set up a course, tell students the course ID, and open the course for online enrollment, if you kept enrollment closed initially. You must also create assignments and make the assignments available to students.Mastering provides hints of two types that help students work through, and ultimately solve, problems. Declarative hints provide advice on how to approach the problem, guiding students to the final answer. Socratic hints break a problem down into smaller sub-problems, which makes it easier for students to complete the original problem.
