Comments and Advice from Previous PHYS 211 Students
We have asked several students who previously took PHYS 211 to either make a short (~ 2 minutes) video or write down some advice that they have for students taking PHYS 211 in the future. We have not edited or rejected any of the submissions. We told them that they can say anything that they want, although we gave them the following questions as examples of things that they might address:- Looking back on PHYS 211 after having continued your college education, what are the most useful things that you got out of PHYS 211 -- either particular subjects and/or techniques and study skills -- that have helped you in your later work (either in later courses or in research/internship positions that you have had)?
- What are the approaches that you found most helpful for you when taking PHYS 211. E.g., what worked best for you when approaching the class times (lectures/problem sessions/labs); doing regular homework problems, online drills/reading quizzes and quizzes. Did you take advantage of web materials (calendar pages, videos), office hours, evening help sessions, and/or TLC study groups or tutoring, and how helpful were they?
- Is there anything that you wish that someone had told you when you started in PHYS 211 a couple of years ago?
