- look around-who is here with us?
- what made you curious about APES?
- what science background do you bring?
- what sort of laptop/device do you use?
- what about our textbook?
- myHPA and the physics server-how they fit together (see below)
- where do we meet for class next week?
- class notes-always on physics.hpa.edu
- class iPads-next week
- labs: virtual and physical
- videos, homework, quizzes, other grade stuff-see the syllabus on myHPA
Please read the syllabus on myHPA for more detail on late work and other fascinating stuff.
I'd like to try using breakout rooms to get a finer picture of what you hope to discover this year:
alpha questions: breakout room trios if possible, 10 minutes
- what would you like to learn or experience this year?
- which of these is most interesting or matters most to you:
- energy
- climate change
- conservation
- resource issues
- population issues
- pollution
- habitat/biodiversity/endangered species
- water and air quality
- lesser developed countries: health, poverty, economy...
- social action
We'll continue with a fun exercise that you'll find from your friends that ALL science classes are doing the first few days: CER, which stands for claim-evidence-reasoning.
