Purpose
Students can visit these web pages to view lecture materials and selected
graphics. This material may help the students to decide whether or not to
take the course. Once enrolled in the course students can use these pages
to see material that they may have missed. In addition, students can visit
these pages to review for examinations. Finally, these pages include some
links to other locations to further expand the material.
Because this course material is available online, students can view it
from any of the on-campus computer labs, the library, at home on a home
computer, or from anywhere in the world with internet access.
How to Use These Pages
These pages were created specifically for use with recent versions of
Netscape. I cannot anticipate how they will appear on the many different
web browsers that are available. I have tried to make the text versions
useful for those viewers not running Netscape. However, these users will
miss the many graphics. These graphics include interesting diagrams,
tables, and graphic representations of experiments and results.
This is a working project. I strive to make these pages user friendly, and
I modify and update the pages regularly. Please provide comments and
suggestions by sending email to the address below.
Helper Applications
Some of the demonstrations on these pages require special helper
applications or system extensions. For example, there are links
to movie files that require QuickTime. QuickTime movies can
be viewed on both Macs and PCs, but you need the right utilities.
Similarly, some of the pages contain sound or audio files. These
require audio programs. Most of the software you need is
available on the internet. The links below should help you set-up
your computer.
