I think that it would be a very good movie to show my physics students. There is a lot of information presented in a way that would be understandable to high school students.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-4781053271136326301?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-86231592238068226332008-06-12T14:31:00.000-07:002008-06-12T14:35:46.230-07:00June 12<br /><br />Enjoyed the homework presentations by David and Phillip. Very applicable to a variety of grades.<br />The "Particle Adventure" was full of a lot of very good information (and I enjoyed their sense of humour!)<br />. I feel more informed about the structure of an atom now, than I did before I went through a few of the lessons.<br />Working on the board again -- we are getting quite good at it!<br />:)<br />Going to the chemistry labs was enjoyable!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-8623159223806822633?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-91434444371176570592008-06-11T14:40:00.000-07:002008-06-11T14:42:50.292-07:00The speaker from South Dakota State University was interesting. I did not know very much about the Homestake mine lab. I enjoyed the discussions that ensued.<br /><br />We graduated and soldered on the "real" board today. Angie, Pat, Paul and I took turns practicing on a practice board and then moved on to the actual board we will use in the detector.<br /><br />NERVOUS!<br /><br />There is a lot of information floating around in my head; waiting for it to congeal.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-9143444437117657059?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-65173004842245797392008-06-11T12:14:00.000-07:002008-06-11T12:16:03.673-07:00June 11<br />I really enjoyed Angie's activity/presentation.<br />It will be very easy to adapt to high school level.<br /><br />Good job Angie!<br /><br />The lectures this a.m. were very interesting and I hope that I will retain at least some of it!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-6517300484224579739?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-36547138761704065912008-06-10T14:50:00.000-07:002008-06-10T14:51:32.528-07:00I really enjoyed Kim and Pat's presentations.<br />Learned a lot and enjoyed myself!<br /><br />:)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-3654713876170406591?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-36497916187067332642008-06-10T14:37:00.000-07:002008-06-10T14:50:34.838-07:00Talked about 1/2 life of an element.<br />Decay rates.<br />Types of radiation (particle and wave)<br />Ions<br />Isotopes<br />:)<br /><br />Afternoon was a lot of fun.<br />My soldering leaves a lot to be desired!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-3649791618706733264?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924996999202284430.post-16527379746390070422008-06-10T14:35:00.000-07:002008-06-10T14:36:59.930-07:00We covered a lot of material yesterday (June 9, 2008).<br />Cosmic rays, types of radiation.<br />We also did a couple of fun activities in the p.m.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7924996999202284430-1652737974639007042?l=terresagreenleaf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Terri G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14014178410781434835noreply@blogger.com0
