Week 1/2

Week 1
No students at office hours

Week 2
9/14: Courtney Group, Mike Thomas
9/15: Emily Klawon
9/17: Kevin Jiang

I had several students come in during week 2. Most of the questions were regarding the homework that they had. I just had to explain how some of the basic concepts worked for them to understand. One of the students was able to set up the problem right, but during the process of solving them, added several unnecessary steps that confused her. Another student had problems with finding the time it took for a ball thrown in air to hit the ground. He wanted find the distance the ball traveled up in the air first and then the distance it fell, but I explained that it was much easier just to find the net displacement.
