Octopus on the run



I wonder if I can make a brain burner exam question with this video.

OK, good.

OK, the lecture podcast is now uploading. Everything back to normal.

Strange

For some reason, iTunes U is not letting me upload your Friday lecture. It's strange. I hope to get it up as soon as iTunes U stops being cranky.

No HW this weekend

No homework this weekend. I will see you all on Monday.

whooooops

Oh, man! I did it again. I did not get that potential energy assignment up for you by lunchtime.

I will put it together and set it up to be due on Friday morning.

This means that there will be two assignments due on Friday morning.

Excellent.

Homework 6 is running!

Your homework assignment #6 is now ready in Webcourses. Prepare your brain to be sizzled up to a crackly crunch by a few concepts brain burners and one calculations brain burner.

Big disaster

AAAAAKKKK!!!

Big disaster. I got sidetracked today by some non-academic disasterness (see photo), so I completely forgot to post your guys' homework.

So.... no homework tonight, but in lecture tomorrow I will get you ready for a good HW assignment for the weekend, with a good quantity of deluxe brain burners. For instance, which is heavier, a ton of bricks or a ton of homework? :D

See you in the morning, 10:30 AM sharp!

Exam blurbs

For those of you who've gotten your exam printouts, you can now correlate your incorrect questions to each question's general topic -- but not the verbatim question itself -- by looking at the blurb files, in Webcourses. Find it at the yellow pencil icon.

With the blurb file plus your exam printout, you can start building up a nice study guide for the final exam.

Exam 1 grades UP.

Your exam 1 scores are now up. The total is the sum of clicker and scantron performance:

   ..Exam 1 scantron
 + ..Exam 1 clicker
   ------------
     Exam 1

The average was about 72%. I normally do not assign letter grades on midterm exams, only on semester grades, but if I did, this average would be a C+. Not bad.

P.S. Some of you have no clicker data, so no score in that row. The actual data you sent is on a lower row of your My Grades page, as well as the sentence you coded.

Also, a few of you might not have scantron scores if your scantron did not get scored -- either by plan or because of a mistake on your PID. In either case, we will try to get that scantron score rounded up in the next day or so.

Squeeze

When you get to the BA119 lecture hall this morning, squeeze in to the middle of the row. Every single seat is going to be occupied.

Make sure your iClicker 2 is ready. I have a real brain-burner ready for you!
