AY 375 - Fall 2016: Sixth Day Lesson Plan

• Group discussion of video and slides

Diffraction grating demo (10 min)

• Which way are the lines spaced?
• How many lines per mm?
• Wavelength dependence
• Width of Human Hair

Discussion on doing demos? Has anyone done demos and how did they turn out?

1. Write a midsemester evaluation and administer them in your sections next week (9/26-9/30). After reviewing your students' responses, write up a ~1 paragraph summary of the evaluation (What did you learn? What changes might you make?). Bring this summary and a copy of your (blank) evaluation to class on 10/5. If you are teaching a lab course, you are encouraged to talk to the Professor of the course and see if it's possible to adminster a midsemester evaluation for the class as a whole. If you are not teaching at all this semester, please draft a general midsemester evaluation (one that you could use in future semesters), but you will not be administering it.
2. If you haven't done so already, visit your peer's section. Meet up for discussion and complete the Peer Visitation Worksheet by 9/28 (next week!).
