Homework

During the last 2 weeks of class we are going to try something different for homework. There will be 10 short daily assignments that you will submit online when they are available below. 10% per day will be deducted for late submissions but all work must be submitted before midnight on December 7th. The solutions will be posted after that to help you prepare for the final exam. These are not team exercises. You must work on these individually. Evidence of collaboration on these exercises will result in a 0 for the homework component of the course grade (25%).

Review Sheets

Homework

Here is the homework in Word format for the PC in case you misplace your copy of the homework or would simply like another copy. I will always give you a hard copy of the homework in class.

Email Communications

One way to contact your instructor is by sending email to astro@sfasu.edu. To get a free Titan email account go to https://apache.sfasu.edu/accountman/.

PowerPoint Lectures Online

These are some of the slides that are used in class. Viewing these is no substitute for class attendance since the details are usually given on the chalkboard.
  • Step 1: Download Microsoft's Free PowerPoint Viewer to a temporary directory (e.g. c:\Temp\).
  • Step 2: Download one of EGR 111 PowerPoint Lectures to the same temporary directory.
  • Step 3: Run Microsoft's Free PowerPoint Viewer for the PC. You will find it in the temporary directory.
  • Step 4: Load one of Dr. Bruton's PowerPoint Lectures and enjoy.
