June 7 office hour

We reviewed several items from homework and mini-quizzes. You can view the recording by looking in the Adobe Connect folder on our Webcourses home page.

Good night.

One more ch. 21 podcast, concerning circuits.

YAY. Another chapter 21 podcast, for Exercise 18, p. 445, which is about circuits. You can also use the podcast to tackle exercise 17, 19 and 20, which are very similar to exercise 18.

Plus, the podcast ends with an open-ended brain-burner that we can talk about in Webcourses discussions.

Some Flash files, pretty slick

I just activated some nice Flash simulation files, inside our learning module, Galileo and the laws of motion. Click on item 3.7, "Flash files for study" and you can try them out. They work nicely.

Also, there are some new blurb files about chapter 4 and chapter 5 exercises and concepts, in the same place, the Galileo learning module.

A few new files to scope out

There are a few new files for extra study. One file is a blurb on the phases of Venus that Galileo first observed with his telescope. Anther file is an elaboration of exercise 11 on p. 73, which is a good chapter 4 exercise. The third file is a set of bonus questions from the first midterm exam in my lecture section, which was yesterday.

The files are linked in the Galileo learning module page, part 3. Have a look at them and enjoy.
