Week 11

I helped one student prepare for their upcoming test. We worked on rotational kinematics problems, and focused on moments of inertia. Another student from modern physics came to office hours as well, and we did some homework problems. The student from physics 0110 seemed to understand the material, I only clarified a few points that they found confusing. The student from modern physics and I figured out problems on radioactivity. Overall, it was a productive day. I expect more students from physics 0110 to show up in the coming weeks seeing as we are nearing finals week.

Week 10

No students showed up to office hours this week. This makes sense as it was the week after an exam. I think more students will show up in the upcoming weeks because we will be starting rotational kinematics.

Week 9


No students came this week, but there is an exam next week so I am expecting to see a few students next week coming in for some exam prep.  Currently, the class is covering magnetic fields from currents and induction.

Week 9

Bhupinder Singh Professor Liu Tuesday Thursday 6pm-7:20pm This week, I only had one student come to office hours. He came to get some help on webassign. Other than that, no one else has come to office hours this week. I believe we are approaching the third exam of the semester, so people should start coming to office hours this week in order to prep better for the final exam. Other than that, I hope I get students this week during office hours.

Week 9

Three students came to my office hours this week.  We discussed simple harmonic motion and applied Hooke's Law to some problems.  There were a few questions on the homework that they were unable to get on their own at first, but soon understood the correct method.  They were able to do similar problems after having done the sample ones.

Week of March 21st

I had 6 familiar faces come to office hours this week.  We mostly went over homework problems or video checkpoint problems. The students seemed to struggle most with simple harmonic motion, especially trying to convert word problems into knowns/unknowns for relevant equations. I'm expecting more students to come in next week with the upcoming exam.

Week 10

Dr. Paolone T TH 11

Surprisingly, no students came to my office hours this week.  In lecture, the class is learning about some of the really cool stuff involving Maxwell's equations.  Some of the most interesting demonstrations happen at this point in the semester.  Next week is the test so maybe I'll see some students then.
