The Math Lab is located in Room 208 of Sims Library.
MyCompLab is educational software by Pearson. Southeastern students use the software for English classes;. Students must have a student access code and course ID in order to register for MyCompLab. Their English instructors give this information to them. Library personnel do not have access to this information and cannot assist them with MyCompLab.
My Math Lab is a product of Pearson. Students need a access code and course ID from their instructors in order to log into the Pearson software. While library staff are encouraged to direct questions about MyMath Lab to math faculty, we have seen that many math students want to sue MyMath Lab on library PCs. Please let Beth S. know so that she can update the Library Director about this from time to time.
Note: Students who are using MyMathLab should use the software in the Math Lab on the 2nd floor of the Library, and not in the Reference area, Serials Department.
Dr. Tim Hudson (Chair of the Mathematics Department) and Janie Branham (Interim Library Director) have agreed that math students should not be accessing MyMathLab on library PCs. Please direct these students to the Math Lab, x5867.

The virtualized PCs that students use have Open Office. This is helpful because students create documents in different word processing software and versions: MS Word (.doc, .docx), Word Perfect (.wpd) and Works (.wps) are some of the most common.
Students may try to open files from their webmail accounts or from within Moodle or from a flash drive. If you click on the document icon, you may find a grey bos which allows you to open with Microsoft Word. If not, you will need to save it to the desktop and then open with MS Word.
Example 1.: MS Word files in Moodle want to open in Open Office
Try this in Chrome or Firefox:
Right Click
Open in Word in a new window
File opens
RTF files open in Open Office
Save to Desk top as Word
The default is Microsoft Office -- students should save work to Google apps Drive and format with Office apps.

Students and employees log in with their W number and password.

Students will sometimes come to the library and ask for WS_FTP (a file transfer program) so that they can upload their web pages onto a Southeastsern server. Dr. Joe Burns (Comm professor) teaches both Undergrad and Grad courses in website design.
Instructions for downloading WS_FTP are also available.
This creates a zip folder and students should be able to view the content somewhat. All the zip folders have more than one file in them, so students may have to open a few of the files before they find their content. In some cases, the document will be saved as a picture, but at least it's printable.
In other cases it will be a pdf and easily readable and printable.
