Physics 1120, Sp 2004

Taking lecture notes is an important part of any class, but in Phys 1120, with the large number of concept tests, demos, and high level of interactive engagement, you may prefer to just concentrate on participating. So, I provide you here with a variety of "notes". I will try to get them here before lectures - feel free to print what you like, you can bring them with you to class if you like!

• DAILY SUMMARY and READINGS Very brief one-liners! (This may not update until after the lecture, for obvious reasons!) Reading assignments are here too.
• CONCEPT-TESTS from lectures (so you don't have to write down the questions during class!)
• LECTURE NOTES These are detailed. Since I don't generally "lecture", these are my own summary of the important concepts (with examples) for the chapter we're in. I want YOU to start coming up with your own summaries like this, so I might not continue to provide these all semester.
• ASSIGNMENTS from this week ( in case you miss a class or get confused about what's due when) Check here often!
• PRETEST QUESTIONS These are pretest questions you do before tutorials. One goal of each tutorial is that, by the time you're done, you should have a good understanding of what was on the pretest, and have developed some confidence and understanding of the material. Pretests are "up" only for a few days a week, so if you miss one (or just want to go back later and remind yourself of what it asked), you can find them here.

I would be very interested to know if you think this page is of any use, feedback is welcome!
