2.00 Credits
Designed to provide an understanding of stress and the individual responses to it, causes and consequences, and stress management methods. Effective use of time management techniques covered in-depth; also, nutritional aspects of healthy lifestyle. Prerequisite: none. E. FREEMAN, W. FREEMAN.
-
1.00 Credits
Provides insights into the concepts and methods of teaching physical education at the elementary level. Students observe and assist elementary physical education teachers in actual classes. Readings focus on topics ranging from motor development to teaching theory. Prerequisite: Education 221 or permission of instructor. JAWORSKI.
-
4.00 Credits
An overview of various psychological concepts underlying sports performance. Pertinent social and philosophical issues also addressed. Topics include personality, anxiety and arousal, motivation, self-efficacy and confidence, individual and group dynamics, cohesion, and various cognitive intervention strategies. Prerequisite: none. W. FREEMAN.
-
4.00 Credits
An investigation of a variety of physical principles that have interesting applications to musical acoustics and the visual arts. Topics include simple vibrating systems, musical instruments, Fourier analysis, light and color, optics, and photography. Intended primarily for nonscience majors. Laboratory work allows students to investigate phenomena firsthand. Three lectures, one laboratory each week. Prerequisite: none. CADMUS, CUNNINGHAM.
-
4.00 Credits
Descriptive astronomy, covering the tools and methods of astronomy, the solar system, the stars, and the structure of the galaxy and the universe. Prerequisite: none. CADMUS.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is the first part of a yearlong, calculus-based introductory physics sequence, focusing on the application of physical principles, logical reasoning, and mathematical analysis to understand a broad range of natural phenomena related to force and motion. Topics include Newtonian mechanics, conservation principles, gravity, and oscillation. This course meets for six hours each week and involves both classroom and laboratory work. Prerequisite or co-requisite: Mathematics 124, or 131, or permission of instructor. STAFF.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is the second part of a yearlong, calculus-based introductory physics sequence, focusing on the application of physical principles, logical reasoning, and mathematical analysis to understand a broad range of electromagnetic phenomena. Topics include electricity, magnetism, light, and early atomic theory. This course meets for six hours each week and involves both classroom and laboratory work. Concurrent or prior enrollment in Mathematics 133 is recommended. Prerequisite: Physics 131, and Mathematics 124 or 131; or permission of instructor. STAFF.
-
4.00 Credits
An investigation of large man-made structures (e.g., Brooklyn Bridge, Eiffel Tower, and Hancock Tower/Chicago), considering structural, social, and aesthetic aspects. The relationship between a structure's form and its function is examined. Concepts from physics necessary for the quantitative analysis are presented. Prerequisite: Mathematics 124, or 131, or permission of instructor. CASE.
-
4.00 Credits
A course in modern electronics, emphasizing the use of integrated circuits. Topics include analog electronics, primarily the design of circuits based on operational amplifiers; digital electronics, including logic circuits, counters, and timers; and microcomputer interfacing using software written in low-level languages and Pascal. Two lectures, two laboratories each week. Prerequisite: Physics 132, and some computer programming experience, and either secondyear standing or permission of instructor. TJOSSEM.
-
4.00 Credits
For students with an introductory physics background who wish to extend their knowledge of atomic, nuclear, and solid state physics. Emphasis on the basic phenomena and fundamental physics principles involved in special relativity and quantum mechanics and their subsequent application to atomic, nuclear, and solid state models. Three classes, one laboratory each week. Prerequisite: Physics 131-132 and concurrent registration in Mathematics 215, or permission of instructor. STAFF.
