This week I had one person come in at the end of my Monday office hours. She had one question and it was about homework. I was surprised, because I thought students would show up the day before the test. I had two students on Thursday and two on Friday. Most of the questions about the homework. It seemed like students had a basic understanding of what forces are and they were able to draw free body diagrams. Students had some trouble with problems that required the use of kinematic equations and then required students to use force concepts. The best way to deal with these problem is to break it up into the two physics concepts first and do each part separately.
