AI Thread Summary
Physics Forums (PF) offers dedicated homework help forums, specifically under the "Science Education" category. Users must demonstrate prior effort on their questions and utilize the homework template for assistance. Accessing these resources can be challenging on mobile apps, as some users report difficulty finding the "Homework & Coursework Questions" section without navigating through categories. Feedback suggests that clearer navigation instructions could improve user experience. Overall, PF provides valuable resources for homework help, but accessibility issues on mobile platforms need addressing.

Where can I go to for Homework help? Does PF offer any threads on that? Thank you
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Great. Thank you
 
Some time I truly wonder how certain things are missed here on PF.

For your information:

NOTE: You MUST show that you have attempted to answer your question in order to receive help. You MUST make use of the homework template, which automatically appears when a new topic is created in the homework help forums. Once your question or problem has been responded to, do not go back and delete (or edit) your original posts.
 
I couldn't find it from my app. Perhaps I didn't look long enough. I never access from the web page though
 
Yeah I read it adjacent. Thanks for the help

You raise a point which might be worth considering. I installed the the app on my wife's iPad to see what it looks like. When I choose "Browse" I get a list of the top-level forum categories:

Science Education
Physics
Astronomy & Cosmology
Mathematics
Engineering
Other Sciences
PF Lounge

In order to see individual forums, I have to open a category. I don't see "Homework & Coursework Questions" until I open up "Science Education".

I expect it's the same on an iPhone, but I don't have any idea about Android.
 
Yeah I have iPhone 5. I think the app is really good. Except for that. They should put it right in the FAQ
