Would you like to get up to 10 extra points in this class?

If your answer to this questions is "yes", follow three easy steps to get UP TO 10 extra points.

Post interesting questions and answers on the discussion board (every interesting question contributing to the discussion on the topics related to physics and/or answer will be equal to 0.5 point). This way you can earn up to 5 extra points. Questions unrelated to physics are not counted.
Make a picture of interesting phenomena that you observed in everyday life an write a two-page essay, explaining how it is related to physics we discuss in class. If your essay shows (a) that you can apply  physics to everyday life, and (b) you think about physics outside of the classroom, you will earn up to 1 extra point for each "mini-project".This way you can earn up to 5 extra points
Come visit me during my office hours and share with me your ideas about the physical science class. I would like to know your opinion about this class, how it can be improved, what works and what doesn't. (Up to 1 extra point).

Comment: These 10 extra points are bonus points. You can earn an "A" without these ten extra points!
