STATUS:
- Scientist at JPL, also an adjunct faculty at Citrus Community College.
for my students:
syllabus (note the correction in the contact info), directions to the observing site. (When Observing, students should bring their flashlights!!)
Constellations pre-lab, Falling Bodies pre-lab. Lab Write-up pointers:
ABSTRACTS:
- Tell what you did and why you did it
- State your hypothesis somewhere (in a regular fashion) in the text
- Tell how you tested it
- Say what the result was, and how trustworthy the result is.
PPTs from class:
Lecture, Wk 1
Lecture, Wk 2
If you cannot make it to class, call or email me before class , and we can very likely arrange a make-up in another session. There is one make-up lab at the end of the course. You may only miss two labs to receive a passing grade in the course.
