This is not going to be your typical semester.
I love talking with you in person, seeing you in class in person, writing on the blackboard, gesturing with my hands, and making faces. But I love your health and wellbeing even more. Here is my plan for the upcoming semester.
Classes: I will try to do all teaching from my home. Because the textbook by Griffiths is so clear, most of my teaching will be about insight rather than coverage. This might make it more fun for all of us.
Turning in solutions: Like any good physics course, this one has problem assignments. Assignment solutions will be handed in as a pdf file. There are several ways to turn your solutions into a pdf file, but I recommend writing them out on paper as usual, then photographing with your smartphone using the free "Adobe Scan" app. Name the file for assignment 3 "YourLastName3.pdf" and email it as an attachment to Dan.Styer@oberlin.edu with subject line "Electrodynamics3".
Your solutions returned to you: Ordinarily, I would give you detailed written feedback concerning your solutions. There are ways to do this on pdf documents but all of the ways drive me crazy. (And just as I am concerned about your health and wellbeing, so I am concerned about my mental health and wellbeing.) So instead I'm going to try this: My model solutions will not only solve the problem, they will also detail how many points you earn for each correct element of your solution. I will respond to your solutions with an email giving the number of points you earned for each problem, plus any comments I have.
