weekend post (b/c we had to)

Just posting since we had to. Comments... this blog is an excellent idea for a higher level course to be quite honest. It has great potential but not so much with this course, there will be times where the blind will be leading the blind in these posts (no offense to anyone). Physics is also a very difficult course to just explain online. If someone doesn't understand something in class, it's most likely going to be harder to understand here. Simply calling a friend or asking others for help would be a much better alternative, so far it has been working for me.

Thanks for the feedback RJ.
We'll see how it works out - My hope is that students will increase their understanding of the course material while creating their written summaries, and that others will be able to learn from them.
Take a look at my response to a question from Alexis for more on why I feel this will increase everyone's understanding of physics.
