303L Interactive Quiz (IQ)-Questions
- Link to this page: This page is linked to the "E & M and Optics" part of the IQ-library on the Classtalk home page at http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~ctalk.
- Errors, queries and comments:
- At the end of each chapter there is link to the IQ-library board which allows users to post comments, error reports etc. The intent of this board is to help keep the library materials up to date.
- About once a year, Dr. Chiu plans to visit the board and correct error reports found on the board. If you want his immediate attention please touch base with Dr. Chiu through email at chiu@physics.utexas.edu
- If the update of the error report occurs during a semester, errors corrected will be indicated in the iqerrata and correction date will be posted in the table of contents after the title of the questions.
- Download iq-questions: Please use the printer-friendly features to download iq-questions one chapter at a time.
- Faculty Copy: If you are a physics faculty member and are interested in getting a transparency-size copy of library questions please contact Dorothy in the physics main office.
The term "IQ-questions" stands for Interactive Quiz questions. IQ questions are a collection of "bite-size"questions. Many of these questions will be covered during lectures. They often accentuate the key points, and nuances in a lecture or a homework problem. Working through IQ-questions could also be a regular activity in weekly TA sessions. ( For a general discussion on the Interactive Quizzes and IQ-questions please click here. ). The collection of IQ questions which will be used this semester consists of:
- iq-questions: Developed by us, available on the Web. Click here.
- pi-questions: Taken from the Peer Instruction Book of Eric Mazur.Click here.
- The postscript file is available. Click here.
Recommendations to students: (IQ questions are the secret weapons which will help you to do well in this course.)
- Study the IQ questions in depth on a regular basis. Make sure that you understand the physics. Write down an explanation for each question in your own words. Your instructor and your TA will be glad give you their comments on your writeups.
- To keep up with the pace of this course, students should review at least those IQ questions for the materials covered in the previous lecture.
- As the semester goes along, you should plan to work through the entire collection of IQ questions. If you have any queries or concerns on any of these questions, make sure to get them resolved. For instance you may discuss them with your classmates, bring them to your TA session, or consult your instructor, etc.
- Before each exam, among other things, make sure that you have gone through the Physics of the IQ questions for that unit. Keep in mind, some questions similar to IQ questions may appear in the exam.
