Believe it or not, we are halfway through the semester. Reflecting back on the first 8 weeks of our course, I recalled this great moment during our solubility investigation. Usually I do not approve of phones in lab. However, this (pictured) was a great use of a phone / flashlight app to determine whether or not a precipitate was formed during a solubility trial. You all have shown us many times how creative you are. Although I’m relieved to have this week (Spring Break!) to catch up on what’s been a taxing and at times hectic semester for me, I’m looking forward to the second half of the semester and to teaching this course again in the Fall. Enthusiastic students with such large and unique personalities have made this class great and eased much of the nervousness I had about teaching this course for the first time. Thanks, guys!
If Daniel had mentioned that he was a former high school track star, this race may have never happened. Believe it or not, this race was all in the name of science and the VO2 max experiment… and smack talk.
The class runs outside to witness a foot race… an epic battle between teacher and student(s) is about to commence.
