3. CREATING AN ACCOUNT
From this point on you will be asked to key in your e-mail address, first and last name (preferably as it
appears on the class roster). Additionally, you will be asked to create a password, as well as selecting a
security question.
My advice on making up a password is to use something as simple and easily remembered as possible
(very few people are likely to spend hours breaking your code in order to do your assignments for you).
You might want to record these below:
e-mail: ……………………………………………………………………………………
Password: ………………………………………………………………………………..
Press the CONTINUE button once you have completed all the necessary sections.
