I just want to verify that the online text is an alternative to the print, as opposed to just being a supplemental text. Will I miss out on any crucial information or be unable to do certain assignments if I only use the online text? Thank you.
@&
The course works as well in the alternative edition.
Note though that the 6th edition of the text is a possibility. If you have a copy or can get one at a reasonable price, it will probably be more convenient to have the physical text.

I recall reading on one of the links that we would be informed once the DVDs were available through the bookstore, but I just wanted to confirm this. I also recall reading that the bookstore is no longer able to copy DVDs and that our lectures will be posted via YouTube? I just want to ensure that I understand everything thus far; I certainly do not want to fall behind because of my own misunderstanding. Also, since I cannot complete this orientation exercise, can I skip this one for now and complete the others? Thank you.

I believe I have enough DVD's for the Physics 202 class. They will be sent with the Initial Materials. I hope to be able to sent those out tomorrow afternoon, but in any case you'll have them by the time you need them.
