Mastering homework suggestion

[Zellmer, Robert]

I was speaking to a couple of students today about the MasteringChemistry
homework.  Because we're moving so quickly and we cover a lot of material
in a week (almost twice what would normally be covered in a week) there
will be a lot of homework due on Fridays and Saturdays.  Here's a suggestion
to help you break it out.

Last week we covered 13.1-13.4 on Wed. and Fri.  Then this past Mon we
covered 13.5-13.6 and 14.1-14.2.  You should have been done with the
reading and EOC exercises for 13.1-13.4 by this past Sunday and 13.5-13.6
and 14.1-14.2 before today's lecture.

So I would suggest working on the MC Tutorials sets for 13.1-13.4 today (Wed.)
and the MC Homework Review sets for 13.1-13.4 tomorrow (Thur.).  Then
do the MC Tutorials for 13.5-13.6 and 14.1-14.2 on Fri. and the MC Homework
Review sets for 13.5-13.6 and 14.1-14.2 on Sat.

This way you can spread things out a little.  It will make it a little less taxing
and easier to retain as you're not trying to do so much in one day.  Remember,
you also need to be covering the new material we got through today by lecture
on Fri. and the Fri. lecture material before lecture on the Monday lecture.

Plan on this for the future.  For the MC work due on Friday work on the problem
sets which apply to the Wed. and Fri. lectures of the previous week on Wed.
and do the Homework Review sets due on Sat. for that period on Thur.  Then
do the MC work due on Fri. that applies to the Monday lecture on Fri. and
the work due on Sat. that applies to the Monday lecture on Sat. (as scheduled).

This all assumes you're doing EOC problems as we're going along and
you're using the MC problems as a review for the Sunday quiz.

I know this is a lot and there's not much breathing room.  That's one of the
downsides of taking this in an 8-week summer session.  Keep in mind it's only
8 weeks and we're already almost done with week 2, only 6.5 more weeks to
go.
