Discovering Physics - Fall 2009
Homework Assignments:
Homework is recommended, but not required. Clicker questions
and test questions are often related to the homework questions.
The suggestions below are accurate at least for the next week.
But, they are generally tentative and might change.
Note:
The weekly reading assignment is important and should be completed by
the beginning of the week. Reading physics is not easy---multiple
passes over the same material is necessary for understanding the material.
Don't read physics in bed, unless you are trying to cure insomnia.
Read physics at a desk, with a paper and pencil at hand.
