Make-up HW Project (something many of you can do over break)

I am permitting any student that has missing HW since the start of semester to do these assignments NOW, late, for 1/2 credit. This is better than the zero credit that you would otherwise get, and would help bring many of you overall averages up.

Their are a total eight assignments that apply in this project -- starting with HW#16 on Jan. 22-29th and ending with HW#23 on Mar. 11-18th. So, if you had all of them missing, and completed all eight of them and brought in your work when we come back from break, you can earn up to 5x8 or 40 points of extra practice credit to improve your grade...

You can access all previous weeks of HW by clicking on the given week in the 'Blog Archive' bar on the right side of this page

If, on the other hand, you are someone that has been doing your HW, you have the possibility to earn some EXTRA practice credit:

The project is to plan, conduct, and write a lab report for your own homemade experiment. It can involve family members or friends, as long as its safe, but it should start with a question you have and a hypothesis. Give me a call using the phone number provided on the syllabus if you need help planning your experiment. Remember, every experiment has at least one INDEPENDENT VARIABLE (what the scientist is purposefully changing, or in select cases what has to "happen first" for the other variable to possibly change) and at least one DEPENDENT VARIABLE (what the scientist measures).

You can also use our lab template [HERE] as well as the 'Golden Lab Guide' [HERE] if you need help making sure your lab report is complete and of a high quality.
