Week of April 17th

One student attended my Tuesday office hours for clarification on a multiple choice problem from Exam 3 on rotational kinematics.  After working out the solution step-by-step, the student understood where they made the error in their calculation and how to correct it for future problems of a similar nature.  At my Friday office hour, two students attended for help on the last set of Expert TA homework problems.  We worked through several on intensity and power of sound, and they seemed to grasp the concepts and calculations well.  We also began one on the Doppler effect, and they seemed to have a good conceptual understanding of the problem, despite the calculations being tricky. 

Overall, this has been a very enjoyable experience for me.  I have learned a lot, and it seems like the students have as well.
