PHY 112 - 2012 - SPRING

**This page is created for PHY 112 students, who are enrolled in the calculus based "physics I" course in the spring 2012 at the University of Hartford. Introduction to wikis and wiki-work is as follows,**

**-- This is designed to improve their critical thinking ability as well as to enhance the independent thinking ability.** **-- Wiki is a user friendly webpage.** **-- You can simply create a page for your own use, by clicking on "Pages and Files", a new window will pop-up and open a page under your name and save it.** **-- In weekly basis I will be posting problems in the "professor's page for problems and help"** **-- You will be given some time to do the work and before the weekly quizzes (on Friday), the solutions will be posted on the same page**

**There can be more than one method to solve a problem. Some are quite easy to solve simply using one equation, whereas others need more thinking and many equations. The student should be able to break long problems into several parts and figure out what is needed to be done first. As the Wikis (wikispaces) administrator, I will guide the students solve physics problems through this interactive webpage. At the beginning of each week, an essay problem will be posted on the page. It is highly recommended that the students visit the page weeky and go through the problems and the offered help. The students are free to sign-up and create their own pages to interactively involve in this class work.**


 * ** Those who decide to enroll will get an extra 5 points added to their class grades **
