• Give yourself enough time to get it done
  
• If you wait too long, i.e., a few hours before the assignment is due, many students are online doing their CAPA. The system is slow and could kick you off.
  
• If you do not wait until the last minute, you have the option of contacting a classmate, professor, or TA for help if you run into a problem.
  
• Some students find it helpful to print out the CAPA first and write the answers on the paper and then record the data on the computer.
  
• It is helpful to read the textbook and/or lecture notes first.
