TERM TESTS: Term tests are scheduled for Friday Feb. 7, 2014 and Friday Mar. 14, 2014 in class. Students are required to present their student ID at term tests and exams. LABORATORY: Labs will be done in C2039. Lab waivers will NOT be granted. Lab slots are two hours in length. You will be required to complete a report on each lab. Your report will be written up and submitted in a report folder (i.e. Duotang) which you should bring to each lab along with three‐holed lined paper on which to write your report. Lab Guidelines, instructions for each experiment, and report templates for the first two experiments can be found by following the P1051 links on the First Year Lab Page. Students are STRONGLY encouraged to think about the organization of each lab report and begin writing up the objectives, theory, and apparatus, as appropriate, following the template examples before coming to the lab. Pre‐laboratory questions are found at www.mun.ca/physics/undergraduates/fylabs/p1051/manual.php. For each experiment, entry to the lab will not be permitted until you have shown your completed pre‐
lab questions to a laboratory staff member (no pre‐lab no entry policy). Questions should be completed on a separate sheet of paper and attached to your laboratory report.

Note that workshops start on TUESDAY. JAN. 7 for section 001, on WEDNESDAY JAN. 8 for section 007, on THURSDAY Jan. 9 for section 002, and on FRIDAY JAN. 10 for section 003. The topics for the problem workshops are indicated on the Lecture/Lab/Workshop schedule. The Workshop will begin with a review of the topic or a discussion of problem solving techniques, as indicated on the schedule, after which students will complete and submit one or more related problems. The work completed in each workshop will count toward the final course mark as indicated in the evaluation scheme.

LECTURE NOTES: The act of compiling a complete set of notes, including the drawing of diagrams, contributes significantly to your ability to organize and recall important information. An archive of lecture notes, organized by topic, is provided to help you to fill in gaps and review complex diagrams presented in class. The most effective way for you to use the lectures and archived notes is to write down an outline of the main ideas and important points during the lecture and then to fill in the details of the outline, as soon as possible afterwards, by using the archived notes to refresh your memory of what was done in class. By doing this, you effectively review each lecture and reinforce important concepts while your recollection of the presentation is fresh and you generate a set of notes that will be of optimal use to you as study tools. Simply reading through the archived notes, without actively generating your own, is likely to be MUCH LESS EFFECTIVE as a learning strategy. Attendance in class is an important determinant of success in this course and will be expected. You cannot hope to pass this course simply by reading posted notes posted and by manipulating formulae provided with tests or exams. You will find that success depends on developing some intuition/physical understanding of the wave and field phenomena encountered in this course. The ways in which we apply mathematical descriptions of phenomena generally depend on having some underlying picture of the relevant symmetry or causal relationships. A large part of my effort in class will be directed toward helping you develop an ability to see beyond the formulae describing the phenomena we cover. My experience is that students who try to rely only on the posted notes without benefit of the classroom discussion, particularly about how different concepts relate and about the way in which the mathematical models represent real phenomena, tend to get lost in the details. This is reflected in their relative success in the course. SUGGESTED POST‐LECTURE PROBLEMS: After each lecture, students are strongly encouraged to attempt a small number of suggested problems from the text that have been selected to reinforce the concepts covered in that lecture. These problems have been listed under each lecture in the Lecture/Lab/Workshop schedule. EVALUATION SCHEME: Assignments

Notes: 1. A minimum Lab mark of 50% is required to pass the course. Lab waivers will NOT be granted.
2. Make‐up labs will NOT be available. In cases where a lab has been missed due to illness, a request to adjust the lab mark must be supported by a note from a physician. See below for information regarding medical notes. 3. Make‐up term tests will NOT be available. In cases where a test has been missed due to illness, a request to adjust the lab mark must be supported by a note from a physician. See below for information regarding medical notes. 4. There will be no supplementary exam.
LON‐ CAPA ASSIGNMENTS: Assignments will be done using the LON‐CAPA (Learning Online Network with Computer Assisted Personalized Approach) web based system. You will be issued a LON‐CAPA password which will give you access to your assignments over the course of the semester. Access through any web browser is sufficient. You can also use computers in the Help Centre to access the LON‐
CAPA system. To access the LON‐CAPA system, you will need your student number and a LON‐CAPA password. These will be provided over D2L. Opening and closing dates for each problem set will be posted on the web site. Because the emphasis in assignments is on mastery of the concepts and techniques, you will be given multiple tries to enter a correct answer to a given problem. If you are unable to get it in the first few tries, ask for help from the instructor or staff in the help centre. Remember: The assignments are an important learning tool and the system has been set up to encourage mastery of the material. The system is easy to use but if you encounter any technical problems accessing the system, ask for help immediately. Neglect of the CAPA assignments will likely cost you at least 1 GRADE in your final mark!!! Desire2Learn: Desire2Learn, a computer‐based course management system, will be used for announcements, distribution of LON‐CAPA passwords, discussion board, posting of student results, posting of lecture notes, and other important information. Please check often. HELP CENTRE: Room C3071, hours to be posted. MEDICAL CERTIFICATES: The information required for medical certificates is specified in general regulation 5.14.4 of the University Calendar. For the convenience of students, this is quoted below: Section 5.14.4: 1. Students who request permission to drop courses, to withdraw from University studies, to have examinations deferred or to obtain other waivers of University, departmental or course regulations based on health issues are required by the University to provide, in support of the request, a certificate from a health professional in the form of a note or letter. Such notes must be sufficiently specific to allow a proper consideration of students' cases. The University requires that all such notes must be on letterhead, must be signed by the health professional, must confirm the specific dates on which the student visited the health professional and should include details on the following:  the degree to which the health issue (or treatment, in the case of medication, for example) is likely to have affected the student's ability to study, attend classes, or sit examinations.  the length of time over which the student's abilities were likely hampered by the condition (e.g., recurring and severe back pain over a two‐month period would likely have a more adverse effect on studies than a single episode of back pain requiring bed rest for a week)  the fitness of the student to resume studies (it is in the student's best interest not to return to studies prematurely). 2.Confidentiality: The University respects the confidentiality of all material contained in such notes. Students should request that their health professional retain a copy of such a note in case the note needs to be verified or reissued at a later date.
