Thursday's "lecture" and making things up

[Robert Zellmer]

Well, Thursday was exciting and a little different.  Thanks for everyone
for hanging around.  I know you didn't have to after what was written
on the board and said to you.

Turns out there probably was a room just across the street we could
have used.  But that's a "could have, should have, would have" if I
had known about it.

Just so those of you who didn't stick around know, we didn't cover any
new material.  We reviewed a little bit of material for tonight.

Now, about making up this lost time and material.  There's probably a
couple of things I'll only speak about briefly and have you read about
them in the book.  Something that's pretty simple and straightforward.

Beyond that I was wondering about doing the following which I brought
up today after our "meeting".  Some of you stated you couldn't stay
after class because of an engineering class which meets 5 min after
our class.

So here's what I did.

I was planning on coming into my office this weekend to record the lecture
and the post it.  Unfortunately, when I came in Sunday morning I was
greeted with doors to the first floor all being closed off with signs 
stating
"Authorized Personnel Only".  I forgot they were replacing the floor this
weekend.  I will try to do so tomorrow, Monday, and post them.  This would
be the most advantageous thing for everyone.  It means you could watch it
before doing exp 14 pre-lab.  It would have been nice to do this last 
Thursday
since I would have discussed this exp 14 and how the lecture related to it.

I managed to get this to work in my office today.  I just finished the 
last 11
pages of Ch 11 Part 1 (pp 1-18).  I didn't want to go too much further 
as there
are demos I like to do for some of the following things in Ch 11 Parts 2 
and 3.

You can find these at my "Notes" link.  Please try to look at these 
pages before
lecture tomorrow.  I know that's not a lot of time but it's only about 
11 pages.
Really, it's only about 10 pages.  I actually had covered the first one 
about
hydrogen bonding last Tuesday but since it's been a week I went over it 
again).
Go to the Ch 11 section.  You'll see several links.  Below them you'll see
"Lecture Videos for Thursday, 10/17", the day which will go down in infamy.

I will need to do a few more pages.  I'll see what point I can get to 
tomorrow and
then I'll figure out what other pages I'll turn into videos.  I might 
even wait to do
this in ch 13.  I essentially have to get about a total of 25-30 pages 
done in this
manner in order to catch up for the material for the 3rd midterm.

This way we don't have to come early or stay late, which I know some of you
can't do.  Again, I'm sorry this had to happen.
