Week of 9/18

Now that we have moved into forces and more complicated applications, I am having many more students come to my office hours. For the most part, students were struggling with understanding how forces are applied on inclined planes and required a thorough explanation before they understood how they should solve these types of problems. I went through several different lon-capa problems step-by-step and tried to explain the concepts behind each step as I went. I am expecting the number of students coming to office hours to increase dramatically now that midterms are starting and they need more help understanding the concepts they are about to be tested on.
