Wiki with Exercises, Notes, Hints, and a Feedback-Forum
Jürgen Vollmer, Uni Leipzig, WiSe2022/23

The lectures will be delivered in hybrid mode with accompanying BBB broadcast. The BBB access code for the course will be 810676. Notes of Online Lectures are available here.

In the Seminars we meet with small number of participants in order to discuss the homework exercises.

Times and locations will be arranged in the first week of the term.

The access key to the BBB session on Tuesday is available at this page.

In the Open Physics Room peers help to cope with understanding the lectures, and provide help in dealing with homework exercises. Abril will be available to answer questions and provide help with the homeworks.

This time may/might still be changed depending on your and Abril's availabilities.

Please contact Abril for more information.

After the lecture on Friday I will offer a Question Time where we can revisit and consolidate core concepts relevant in the TP1 course:

Everybody is invited to join this event. Requests for topics to be addressed in the Tutorial can be posted here.

Each week there will be a set of homework exercises. For each problem there will be a discussion page, and after the submission deadline I will publish the solutions to selected problems. On request I also offer suggestions for further study.

The exercise sheets will be submitted on the Moodle pages of this course. Till October 23 you can register in Moodle with the course enrollment key that is provided on the Exercises Overview page.¹⁾

The exams will be conducted on

• Friday, 17 February 2023 — 11:00am – 14:30pm
• in Physics building, Linnéstraße, Großer Hörsaal 205

and

• Friday, 24 March 2023 — 11:00am – 14:30pm
• in Physics building, Linnéstraße, Großer Hörsaal 205

These are 3 hour exams, and we have some additional time for distribution and collection.

The requirement for participation is that you have earned a TP1 exam admission in a previous year, or that you have reached a score of at least 50% in the exercises.

If you score at least 50% of the points on your exercise sheets you will right away be admitted to the exam. You can double the points scored in an exercise by presenting your solution in your seminar.

More information about exam admission is available on a separate page.

In my lecture notes I provide

• an exposition of the topics covered in the lectures,
• material for follow-up course work,
• material for further reading.

Further details are available at the Lecture Notes Overview page.

• check out first if there is an appropriate discussion field in the wiki to post that problem
• do not hesitate to contact us if this is not the case

For the preparation of retakes the open physics room will be opened again. There will be first meeting to discuss your problems and needs

• this week Thursday, 9 March 2023, at 15:00
• in the OPR

Subsequent meetings will be discussed and arranged during that meeting.

The room will be conducted by

Please contact her by email to express your needs.

For selected problems I will set up a Sage playground, where you can explore the solutions to a range of problems in theoretical mechanics based on interactive Sage templates.

• extension of the wiki and requests for help
• tips and tricks concerning issues with university emails, moodle, almaweb, this wiki, etc
• general discussion, feedback, and information about you
• summer schools and camps that you might find of interest

There are discussion forms on all pages. Viable suggestions and solutions will be promoted from the discussion to Howtos in the main part of the pages. Regular contributors will earn the right to directly edit the pages.
