Announcement:
o Several review videos by
Matt are now available at http://www.youtube.com/user/HaleyPhysics
o We are in the process of
writing a grant for further development of MI curriculum. Please email me
a) your comments on whether you
think review videos are useful means to help you to learn physics.
b) Comments about other aspects
of the present MI curriculum are welcome also.
o Please email me your
questions. We will discuss them on Wednesday.
o There will be 4 sections of
303K-MI next semester. If you have made A’s in both midterm1 and midterm2, and if you are interested in applying for a
