PHYSICS 183                                                                        Spring 2000

Physics for Scientists and Engineers I

Physics Learning Center (PLC):

The Physics Learning Center is in B2 North Kedzie Hall. It is used by several different physics courses.  It will be staffed by members of the teaching team for Physics 183 according to the schedule below.  The instructors at the Learning Center will be available for help on any physics topic covered in the course.  You may attend any and as many of the sessions as you wish.

The Physics Learning Center can also be useful as a place for groups to meet for studying and problem solving.  Interacting with fellow students is a good strategy for learning physics.  Forming study and problem solving groups has been shown to be an effective way to improve understanding and performance.

Asynchronous Learning Network (ALN):

The Asynchronous Learning Network is part of a project supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the Andrew Mellon Foundation.  Selecting the 'Discuss' button in   CAPA takes you to the ALN.  You can post questions which will be answered by the teaching team, or by a fellow student.  Students can also read the Questions/Answers which other students have posted on the ALN.  You can also interact with a teaching assistant who will be on line at the times indicated in the table below.  You may use the ALN at any time, 24 hrs/day.
