Physics.SE is not a homework help site, it is not meant to be a resource to teach people physics, and it is not a resource intended to help right conceptual misconceptions in students. When it was originally created, this site was meant to be a place where active physicists doing active research could come and ask/answer questions. It was intended to be a resource for physicists to be able to find answers to common questions they may want to ask. Much like how SO is most useful to programmers that are trying to program.
Yes, we are not a homework help site; there are other venues for that (see My question was closed on Phys.SE. Can you recommend me another internet site where my question might be on-topic? for more details), if that is what you really need/want.
Physics Homework 51
At the SE level, each SE site has their own self-given rules about what is on-topic and what is off-topic. While Mathematics and StackOverflow might approve of doing someone else's homework, we don't. And we're not really interested in opening the flood gates for that, as you can read in the many posts here.
Both MWF class sessions and TuTh discussion sections are more interactive than traditional math classes:Twice each week (exception on weeks with exams) there will be a modest amount of reading in the course text to introduce some of the motivation behind the topic(s) to be discussed in class, along with an associated questionnaire on Canvas to be completed before class. We strongly urge you to watch the instructional videos on How to read the course textbook before the first Pre-Class Reading Questionnaire. In addition, there will be one check-in question on material from the previous chapter and lecture to re-enforce your learning; this check-in question will be graded for accuracy, you can think of it as a practice exam question. The responses to the rest of the questionnaire are notgraded for correctness, just for a good-faith effort, to informhow the instructor organizes the classroom time around the learning goals for that day. The TuTh discussion sections focus on small-group collaboration with worksheets consisting ofproblems designed around the learning goals and themes in the homework and exam questions. The goal is to engage with the new skills and concepts, and to learn from your peers as well as from the guidance of a graduate student who answers questions. The work in discussion sections is aimed at giving practice with the materialrecently learned in the course; it is not graded, and complete solutions are provided later in the day for each TuTh worksheet.
Canvas questionnaire assignments on the twice-weekly pre-class reading: a typical questionnaire consists of 1 check-in question (always the first question) and 3 to 5 "low-stress" questions. Except for the check-in question, you needn't answer more than one or two sentences per question, and you get full marks for ANY good-faith answer. These assignments are intended to give the instructor feedback on how the reading went and how the course is going; think of them as surveys in which students are voting for which topics need more motivation in class (and which need less or none). Because we will have to review your feedback in a limited time period, the firm deadlines are:Mondays at 8am (about 5 or 6 questions).Wednesdays at 8am (typically about 4 questions), these are ungraded and optional, intended only for those who wanted some guidance on pre-class reading for the Wednesday class.Fridays at 8am (typically about 4 questions) except on exam weeks (where there is only ungraded optional pre-class reading for the Friday class).Exception: As a "warm-up," in the first week we'll have an ADDITIONAL graded pre-class reading questionnaire, due on the first Wednesday at 8am. (It will be posted on Canvas by the first Monday morning.)Grading scheme: The course grade is based on the following components: 70% for exams, with the breakdown of 20% for both midterms and 30% for the final(see exams page for dates, policies, and practice exams);20% for weekly written homework assignments (total points earned divided by 80% of total possible points, not to exceed 100%);10% for pre-class reading questionnaires on Canvas (total points earned divided by 80% of total possible points, not to exceed 100%).Note that per University regulations, if you are enrolled in the course on the credit/no credit grading basis, then the minimum letter-grade equivalent to "CR" is C-minus.
Honor code policyBy Math Department policy, any student found to be in violation of the Honor Code on any assignment or exam in this course will receive a final course letter grade of NP.You are fully responsible to adhering to the requirements of the Honor Code document. In particular, it is forbidden to Collaborating with another student or any other person on an exam. Copying from another's homework or exam, or allowing another student to copy your work. Communicating with a person other than the teaching staff via email, text messaging, Google, any form of social media, messenger, chat rooms, message boards, etc., about anything related to the exam. Plagiarism of material that you did not create, such as copying parts of posted solutions or text wholesale from anywhere, including the internet. The work that you submit must be your own. This also includes representing another's work as your own. Sharing the exam questions or anything in your solutions with any other person for any reason. The restrictions on sharing exam content applies until 11:59PM on the exam date. The university is well-aware of "academic educational sites," such as Chegg, Slader, CourseHero, etc. Their use in connection with a course assignment or exam is an Honor Code violation that is taken very seriously at Stanford.
Accreditation guidelines typically expect that contact hours correspond to credit levels associated with a course. A course with 3 hours of lecture and no lab, studio or discussion hours per week during a 15-16 week semester is equated with 3 student credit hours and would be listed in the catalog as 3 units lecture. A student is expected to have additional outside work of 6 hours per week (studying, homework, etc.) on average for a typical 3 credit lecture class.
Covers the fundamental physical forces and laws that affect the Earth system, such as electromagnetic radiation and energy transfer, atmospheric and ocean dynamics. Also covers aspects of physics related to environmental issues, such as electricity generation and transmission.
Composition, physics, and circulation of Earth's atmosphere with an emphasis on explaining the role of atmospheric processes in shaping the climate system. Topics include atmospheric composition, the global energy balance, radiative transfer and climate, atmospheric circulation, and climate sensitivity.
homework: your grade is basically based on homework. this can be a blessing or curse, since messing up one homework can put your grade at risk. however, they are all definitely doable and the TAs are always willing to help.
rich was the goat. he's probably one of the best lecturers in the cs department; the lectures were interesting and engaging. the lectures were also built from the ground-up, meaning you have the foundational knowledge for everything you learn. since the class is taught in such a cumulative fashion, it's also important to understand everything as you learn. you know rich teaches well, since it feels like the course curriculum was written by him. if you take this class and there are no exams, just beware of the homework, since that is your entire grade. also, this class pairs pretty nicely with cs33, so would recommend taking together if you have the chance. overall, amazing professor, definitely recommend for everyone.
Also, Korf joined the class Discord which was helpful, but also annoying because homework clarifications/corrections would sometimes be posted somewhere up the homework channel which was easy to miss. He would sometimes change his mind about whether something was allowed on the homework, so monitoring the chat was important.
Additionally, Korf reused the homework from previous quarters and I know that some people cheated, which was annoying because the class was curved and homework was our entire grade. Not really his fault, because I do understand that coming up with unique problems for the type of problems he was designing could be difficult, but frustrating nonetheless. 2ff7e9595c
