Fall 2022 MAT225 Lectures 404 & 405
(My AP Classroom from 1988-2019) (Running Linux from 1994-2018)
Fall 2022 MAT225 Lectures 404 & 405:
Lecture 404, this week on Monday 11/28/2022, was about extending Green's Theorem Tangential Form. We talked about calculating Work along a closed path in 3-Space. We also introduced Stokes' Theorem which makes this all much simpler!
This week, on Wednesday 11/30/2022, Lecture 405 was devoted to a Chapter 17 HomeWork clinic in breakout rooms!
This is our last blog post for the semester as the next 3 weeks are all about review and getting ready for the final:
Lecture 501 Mon 2022.1205 preTEST4A
Lecture 502 Wed 2022.1207 TEST4B
Lecture 503 Mon 2022.1212 postTEST4B
Lecture 504 Wed 2022.1214 preTEST5A
Lecture 505 Mon 2022.1219 TEST5B
Lecture 506 Wed 2022.1221 postTEST5B
Have a great XMas Break!
It goes without saying that we coded in Jupyter Notebooks using Markdown and Latex to anotate our work as well as Python and Sympy to check our work!
Test taking tips:
0) During any zoom session, remember: No pajamas, no bedrooms!
1) Place your webcam such that I can see your workspace during the exam. No cellphones! But Calculators, Laptops or Tablets are ok.
2) A copy of TEST4B is available for download at 5:30PM from BlackBoard so you can set up how you want to take the exam before class starts at 5:45PM (tablet and stylus or pencil and paper).
3) You may use anything on our BlackBoard site to help you during the test.
4) Consult our TEST4A solutions during TEST4B as a model of how to write complete answers. Show all work supporting each answer.
5) Avail yourself of any computing environment you are familiar with to check your work: Graphing Calculator, Jupyter, etc.
6) Show all work in the spaces provided for each question or clearly labeled on separate sheets of paper.
8) You may leave class when you are done. Don't be in a hurry, you have all class period.Carefully check all your work, time permiting, before you leave class.
9) Return clearly legible copies of all your work as a single pdf file via school email no later than 15 minutes after you leave class or 8PM, whichever comes first (gives you time to use CAMScanner or Squid to prepare your work for uploading). Class ends 7:45PM.
2) Karaoke entire song changing up the words (about STEAM).
3) You are Singing, Dancing or Playing an instrument.
4) You upload your video to YouTube and provide the url.
5) YouTube Description includes the lyrics.
XTRA CREDIT ARTICLES RUBRIC
(up to 5 articles = 1 bonus point each):
1) Cover Sheet is a Summary of the article.
2) FullPage, 12 pt, DoubleSpaced, 1" Margin.
3) Article has to be STEAM related
4) Article has to be a current event.
5) Copy of entire article is attached.
NOTE TO READER:
In recent years our independent study class has been about the care and feeding of Linux Clusters: How to Build A Cluster, How To Program A Cluster and What Can We Do With A Cluster?
BTW, Shadowfax is the name of the cluster we build! FYI, we offer 4 computing courses:
CSH: Computer Science Honors with an introduction to coding in Python using SAGE, IDLE, VIDLE and Trinket,
