"Knowing how to think empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think." -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
Lecture is a conversation. It is boring otherwise. I encourage all students to be active, ask questions and argue your point. I also encourage (and give extra points) for study groups. Students learn from their peers much better then from any instructor. I am here to help you to learn! It is fun!
Math is fun! This class requires the knowledge of the vector algebra. I do explain all the math, which is needed for understanding physics, but you will do yourself a big favor if you refresh your memory on the subject.
