As a University of Georgia student, you have agreed to abide by the
University’s academic honesty policy, “A Culture of Honesty,” and the
Student Honor Code. All academic work must meet the standards described in
“A Culture of Honesty” found at: www.uga.edu/honesty. Lack of knowledge of
the academic honesty policy is not a reasonable explanation for a violation.
Questions related to course assignments and the academic honesty policy
should be directed to the instructor.
No laptops, pagers, cellphones, iPads, iPods, or any other
electronic/communication devices are permitted in the classroom.
Optional
- Labs begin the second week of classes, Aug. 25 – 29.
- Attendance mandatory.
- Students who are not assigned a lab grade due to non-attendance will
automatically receive a failing grade (“F”) for the course.
- May be found here, http://www.physast.uga.edu/courses
Your homework assignments will be posted and automatically graded on
LON-CAPA*, http://spock.physast.uga.edu
*Users will be added after the drop/add period ends. After that, it will be your
responsibility to keep track of the HMWK deadlines.
Midterm exams:
-
Midterm exam rules:
-
Homework rules:
-
No makeups.
Collaboration OK.
There will be three (3) midterm exams on selected chapters, and one
(1) final optional cumulative exam.
No make-ups or re-scheduling permitted.
One (1) standard sheet containing anything you want (e.g., physical
constants, formulae, diagrams, problem solutions, etc.), all
handwritten. You may write on both sides.
A simple (non-graphing, non-symbolic, non-programmable) scientific
calculator. No other electronic device(s) permitted.
Incompletes:
Grading policy:
I rarely assign “Incompletes.” When I do*, it is in accordance with the UGA
policy, provided all of the following applies:
- You received a non-failing grade in all attempted labs (> 70%);
- You received a non-failing grade (> 70%) on at least two midterm
exams;
- No violation of the Academic Honesty Policy took place in the course
of the semester.
*You must remove the “I’’ by the end of the semester subsequent to its assignment.
5% HMWK (no make-up; must be completed online before the deadline)
35% LABS (attendance mandatory; see above for details)
20% EXAM 1 (10 problems; no partial credit; no re-scheduling)
20% EXAM 2 (10 problems; no partial credit; no re-scheduling)
20% EXAM 3 (10 problems; no partial credit; no re-scheduling)
20% EXAM 4 (optional, cumulative; 10 problems; no partial credit; no rescheduling)
Cut-offs:
The worst of the four exam grades is dropped.
__________________________________________________________
100% TOTAL = 5% HMWK + 35% LABS + 60% EXAMS
F: [0, 60)
D: [60, 68)
C-: [68, 70) C: [70, 75) C+: [75, 78 )
B-: [78, 80) B: [80, 85) B+: [85, 88)
A-: [88, 90) A: [90, 100]
NOTE: No rounding; 89.99 = A-, etc.
Your grades will be posted on eLC-New, http://elcnew.uga.edu
1. Read each chapter before it is discussed in class.
2. Attend every lecture.
3. Participate actively in discussions.
4. Re-read chapter carefully after class.
5. Do assigned homework.
6. Solve as many end-of-chapter problems as possible.
7. Concepts first. Do NOT plug-and-chug.
8. Use a buddy system: find a friend with whom to discuss physics.
9. Think about physics on a regular basis.
10. If everything fails, consider dropping the class before the deadline and
re-taking it at a later time.
Tutors are available either for free through the UGA Tutoring Program at
Tutors:
Milledge Hall, http://tutor.uga.edu, or for pay through the Physics Department,
http://www.physast.uga.edu/tutors.
NOTE: In physics, learning can be frustrating and nonlinear. Often you have to work for a long time
(many days and even weeks) without feeling that you are making much progress. Then, suddenly,
everything falls into place and it all makes sense. But until the “click,” you can’t be sure how much
time you need to “get it” and it’s difficult to plan…
Grades:
How to do well in this
class:
As you solve a physics problem, stop and ask yourself:
What (exactly) are you doing? Why are you doing it? How does it help you?
