Get a leg up on next semester

About this time of year, I search OSU’s site for websites of the classes I’ll take next semester. Why? Because when the classes are finished, hopefully professors will have posted review material, homework solutions, exam solutions, guides, etc. Usually classes change and previous semester’s data may be irrelevant, but it’s still useful to have something for reference, or at the very least, to know what kind of projects are coming down the pipe.
Here’s how to find your classes:
- You can look up your classes using the online course listing found here.
- Now go to Google and use the “site:okstate.edu” modifier to limit your search to just OSU’s website. See an example. Here are some possible search terms to use:
- When you’ve found a site, right click > save as to save as much info as possible. Or use a site mirroring tool such as HTTrack Website Copier to save all the site data.
That’s it!
