Instructions on Accessing Discussion Forum

Netscape is the preferred browser since it handles MIT certificates properly.

The following steps need to be taken:

1. Go to http://forums.mit.edu/
2. Select "Academic Conference"
3. The first time they enter the Forum, students need to register.
   • Selecting "Academic Conference" will take them to the "Quick Login" page.
   • Choose the first option: users with "username@mit.edu" email addresses.
   • The registration process requires that each student have an MIT certificate. (A student who does not have one can obtain it through a link on the Quick Login page.)
4. Subsequent visits to the Forum will not require registration; the above process will be skipped, and the student will proceed directly to the list of course numbers. Select Course 14.
5. On the next screen, select 14.24 to reach the discussion folder.
